String interpolation is one of those features where I'm really confused about the direction the Python team wants to take. It's implicit and magic, and yet another non-obvious way to do do string formatting.

What's more, it's being hailed at a plus for localization which it isn't. Localizers should never, ever deal with string interpolation - anything past what .format() does is essentially untranslatable.
