> More powerful

But less obvious and readable, which is anti pythonic. If you want "power" over readability, there is ruby/perl.

I'm not going to discuss perl readability, but the fact is that I cannot simply 0%% to beginning of the block in "readable" python. ?:$<CR> does its job though.

Note that they say it feels more powerful, it's not like it is more powerful than the file kwarg.
