Do you not get "SyntaxWarning: invalid hexadecimal literal"? (tried in v3.11, with same parsing as in https://hachyderm.io/@SnoopJ/112646011559348547 )

this expression has an identical parse tree to: `(0xf) or (...).real` and the RHS of the `or` is never evaluated so it doesn't matter that the attribute doesn't exist on the `Ellipsis` object

@parvXtl ah, I hadn't realized a `SyntaxWarning` was added for it. Interesting false positive!

😅 And I was wondering if the warning was removed later [after v3.11].
