@disconnect3d was analyzing stdlib code and noted several places with an old code pattern of a dict's .update method being called with a single element dict literal d.update({key: value}) instead of just d[key] = value assignment. see PR which cleans these up. #136811

It avoids an unnecessary temporary dict and method call, less awkward code.
