Another solution would be to change the __str__ of various function objects to a prettier output. For example, we currently have >>> def f(): pass >>> print(f) <function f at 0x7f9f4bbe5e18> We could change this to >>> def f(): pass >>> print(f) f() and then use "%S" to display the functions in error messages. But I have a feeling that this is a more controversial change than PR 14890.
