You can't use tuples of mutable objects (for example tuples of dictionaries) as keys, because those are mutable.

If "hash(obj)" doesn't raise any errors you can use it as a key

Keys have to be immutable, otherwise they would make the whole concept of a dictionary senseless. So yes, tuples of any kind can work as keys no problem.
