First class citizen functions, short lambdas, comprehension lists, generators, map(), filter(), itertools, operator and functools are quite a rich toolbox already. But you won't have more. It's a choice.
The idea is to have enough to be productive, and not enough to be dogmatic. The experience of Guido, and it's one that I share, is that too much functional tooling drives a style that favors expressive writing at the expense of ease of reading.
It's not by chance that LISP and Haskell are considered hard languages to get into, while Python is considered easy to start with.
It has a cost, since no language is perfect, but that's the path this language follows and requesting a snake to fly will only bring you disappointments.
Python tries to strike the balance between the importance of a rich expressiveness and the non negotiable necessity of keeping the code readable: you read a line much more often that you write it, after all. It's a key philosophy of the language. It shaped and will shape numerous decisions around it.
This PEP is a perfect example : it tooks years for the concept to be integrated in Python, and the last debate about this concrete implementation took months. The result is a carefully crafted feature with a lot of details to discourage abuse and remove the needs for pondering when to use it or not.
The only dogmatic position here is the Python one, that based on opinion alone, and is leaving a lot of good structures out for no gain at all.
