https://docs.python.org/3/reference/executionmodel.html list all of the way a variable may be bound. However, it seems that it was not updated. Indeed, structural pattern matching in 3.10 also allows to bind a variable and is not mentionned.

As a related issue, the sentence is far too long and really would need to be broken down. At the very least, the special case "and targets that are identifiers if" is not clear, it is not indicated whether this case extends to the end of the sentence or is just local
