Your proposal requires that I wrap the whole thing up in a function,
or else pass the lookup key to my function every time and switch on
it, instead of getting back a single function once. So you haven't
truly matched the functionality, which means it's hard to compare
readability - I'd have to also look at how readable the call site is,
and that's definitely going to be penalized. Remember, I pointed out
that the function gets called more than once - once on the special
case and then once in a loop.

Plus, how do you implement mutability? The else clause needs to do a
one-off print to stderr, so either the dispatch table needs to be
changed, or the else clause needs some other system of keeping track
of its previously-seen list. Additionally, I have another script that
actually monkey-patches the Expr case out, simply by changing the
dict. It works just fine, because, again, the dict is mutable. To do
that with a switch statement, I'd need to put an explicit 'if' into
there. Show me that version and let's see how readable it is.

There may be a case (pun intended) for adding a switch block to
Python, but this isn't a strong supporting instance.
