I'm curious - why? I view a tuple mostly as structured heterogeneous collections of data where the order/length matter (e.g., a (name, age) tuple), and a list as a collection of heterogeneous collection (i.e. a list of error numbers, like here).
If this is about tuples being immutable, that doesn't really matter much IMHO when used as literals like here.
FWIW I'm happy to change it, but I'd like to understand why :-)</pre>
