Answer 1

If I understand question currectly...

In nutshell, everything is a method of object. You can find "expression operators" methods in python magic class methods, in the operators.

So, why python has "sexy" things like [x:y], [x], +, -? Because it is common things to most developers, even to unfamiliar with development people, so math functions like +, - will catch human eye and he will know what happens. Similar with indexing - it is common syntax in many languages.

But there is no special ways to express upper, replace, strip methods, so there is no "expression operators" for it.

So, what is different between "expression operators" and methods, I'd say just the way it looks.
