Python has tuple destructuring, which can be used with dict.items(). I'm talking about being able to destructure by name not position:

    name, address = some_dict

You could fake it if you could ask for a tuple of specific entries:

    name, address = some_dict.pluck("name", "address")

Symbol keys are string keys for the more sophisticated among us. See :some-name vs "some_name". ;)
