It's especially weird how hard people have to fight for string interpolation given it has had implementations since the 1970s.

Even PEP 498 (fstrings) was a battle.

Superficially f-strings reminds you of php and everyone remembers how awful that was. But Python's implementation is leagues better and we also have better tooling (ie smart parsers) for handling fstrings.
