Thank you!
Like you - and I just learned about the existence of f-strings tonight - I find .format() to be much more readable and logical than f-strings.
My first impression reading about f-strings was "ew."
It's not a case of "I don't like it because it's new". To my jaundiced and admittedly subjective eyes, I'm still finding .format() better, precisely because it doesn't lose any clarity in exactly the way you stated.
In other words, I just don't get the point.
Furthermore! f? Really? What the f does f mean? The str() function is the str() function. As well as print(). As well as .format().
