Unparenthesized assignment expressions in slices were implemented in #23317, so they are allowed since 3.10. Also, assignment expression need to parenthesized in assert and with statements.

Unparenthesized walruses are allowed in index expressions but not slices. This is current 3.12:

>>> x[y:=3]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'x' is not defined
>>> x[y:=3:z:=4]
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    x[y:=3:z:=4]
          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Correct! I mixed up indexes/slices. Sorry!
keyword-argument, and comprehension-if expressions
and in ``assert`` and ``with`` statements.
In all other places where they can be used, parentheses are not required,
including in ``if`` and ``while`` statements.

.. versionadded:: 3.8
See :pep:`572` for more details about assignment expressions.
