With the single-value tuple, I tend to find the parens make it more
readable, so I'd go with

  [x*x for (x,) in lst]

whereas if they were multi-value tuples, I tend to omit the parens:

  [x*y for x,y in lst]

though, tangentially, Python throws a SyntaxError if you try and pass
a generator to a function without extra outer parens because it
makes parsing them ambiguous otherwise:

  >>>  x = sum(a+b for a, b in lst, 10)
  File "<stdin>", line 1
SyntaxError: Generator expression must be parenthesized if not sole
argument
  >>> x = sum((a+b) for a,b in lst), 10)
  [no error]
