Interesting – and disturbing that for lack of deprecation of the other two ways we would then have *three* ways. But irrelevant evidence, again. [I do not understand why that is so hard to understand: In order to substantiate the original statement, it has to be shown *what the statement says*: that it would have been “clearly stated that .format is not going to do away with percent formatting, and all language of "new-style formatting" has been removed so as not to cause confusion.”. Everything and anything short of showing that *fails* to constitute *relevant* evidence for that statement.] > If the 2.7 doc still implies that % -formatting is deprecated, it should > changed as in the 3.x docs.
