I've seen it before, but it's a little jarring. Not sure what's wrong with just using i.

It says explicitly that you don't care about that value. If you used i, for example, you wouldn't know whether the loop depended on the iteration number.

Yeah, I get it. And that's a useful thing to do, I guess. It just seems a little... unpythonic.
