Whatever bootstrap really means in this context. But if you have
myname[3] + myname[5], the two objects being added are identified by a
subscript operation, not just a name.

A literal is used to create an object, and acts like a temporary name
for that object, but once again the object being operated on isn't
necessarily that one. You can subscript and get attributes from a
literal as well.

That would be a pretty weak language, and it wouldn't be python.
Now if you considered "." and "[" as operators, then I could understand
your point. But
http://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#operators
seems to say differently.
