I don't have an actual use-case for this, as I don't target
microcontrollers, but I'm curious: What parts of Py3 syntax aren't
supported? And since you say "port as much as feasible", presumably
there'll be parts that are never supported. Are there some syntactic
elements that just take up way too much memory?

I meant to say % formatting for strings but that's apparently been added
recently. My previous micropython build was from February.
