Calling a generator multiple times

Explain to me, very carefully now, why I should have to read
a language designer's doc in order to consider for a moment how
your average user will encounter a language construct?

For the record, yes, I have read this PEP. It's the very first
thing that I did before mucking around with generators and
before posting even my first message regarding generators here.

Pronouncements like the following: "so I have consulted my
language designer's intuition. It tells me that the syntax
proposed in the PEP is exactly right" aren't exactly persuasive,
especially when you consider the paragraph that immediately
preceeds this decree.
