I imagine this would also increase the complexity of the python intepreter by more than 1%, which in turn would increase the number of bugs in the interpreter by more than 1%. Which would burn both manpower and CPU-Cycles on a global scale.

(I assume that optimization, that reduce complexity are already exhausted, e.g. stuff like "removing redundant function calls". )
