"Right" or "wrong" aside, Python's current default behavior is just
inconsistent with other modes for infix-expression languages. I tried
for a long time to use the default behavior --- maybe there was some
efficiency advantage that would take time to appear --- but I ended up
just giving up and making python-mode work like other modes.
