Yeah, I followed that, but

1) It is only going to be in python 2.7+ and that is a ways off before
   it is released.

2) Even further before people actually have it as the default python

3) It doesn't help memory consumption, because all of those tuples still
   have their GC header, they just aren't in the GC.
   And technically, they are still in the GC for at least 1 collection.

4) It has some interesting further benefits, if I read correctly. Like
   removing *dicts* that only point to static tuples, etc.
