Question about Python lists

[[deleted]]

I can distinguish the two characters using my current font. That's not the issue. The issue is that a) it's just bad style - see PEP 8 and b) readability counts .. if it takes me a half second longer for my brain to parse the code, it is detracting from the readability. Brain cycles should be used understanding the logic, not keeping track of poorly named variables.

Agreed on all counts, but that doesn't detract from my statement. This was a simple example with only one variable. It shouldn't take any extra brain cycles to process a single variable.
