Idiomatic tuple element replacement

Feature

To replace one element within a tuple (returning a modified copy), we're currently forced to write something like this:

[mypy-play.net]

from __future__ import annotations
from typing import (
        Any,
        Dict,
        Final,
        Tuple,
        )
from typing_extensions import (
        assert_type,
        )

ComplexTuple = Tuple[str, int, str, Dict[Any, Any], Dict[str, Any]]
        # (field0, lineno, field2, field3, field4)

def add_to_lineno(ctup: ComplexTuple, lineno_delta: int) -> ComplexTuple:

    # we want to represent the index to be replaced in one place, to
    # keep things DRY:
    index: Final = 1  # s.t. ctup[index] == lineno

    left = ctup[:index]  # element(s) left of the value being replaced

    lineno = ctup[index]
    lineno += lineno_delta
    lineno_frag = (lineno,)

    right = ctup[index:][1:]  # elements right of the value being
                              # replaced
            # NOTE: ↑ weird, inefficient phrasing of 'ctup[index+1:]'

    ret = left + lineno_frag + right
    return ret

Note the very odd phrasing of right = ... at line 27; this serves to work around incomplete #11990 (which appears to be stale).

It took me quite a while to identify this work-around; I'm sure others would struggle with the same issue.

Pitch

In my opinion, there would be value in doing one of the following:

• document namedtuple._replace() as the preferred work-around for this case, in a way that aids discovery
• (ideally) implement a subset of proposal #11990, specifically focused on basic arithmetic support for Literals with exactly one, integer value
• implement a function to idiomatically replace elements of a tuple (that isn't a namedtuple)

Notes

I apologize if a "feature" isn't the right venue for discussing this.

This builds on #3078.

Das Issue nennt keine Quelldatei, keinen Test und keinen Einstiegspunkt. Beginne mit der Durchsicht der Diskussion rund um #11990 sowie der bestehenden Behandlung von Tupeltypen, Literal-Arithmetik und namedtuple._replace(). Als abgeschlossen sollte gelten, dass ein klar abgegrenzter Ansatz ausgewählt und implementiert wurde und Tests den Ersatz von Tupel-Elementen sowie dessen Typing-Verhalten abdecken.
