If it's designed for use by things outside of CPython, how can you be sure nothing is using it?
Of course I'm not sure. However:
1. So far, nobody in this thread knows of any code using it.
2. So far, nobody in this thread knows any use case for it.
And if we end up deprecating and it was a mistake, we can easily revert the deprecation.
I have a use case. I did not know this before, but it can be used to implement accelerated versions of separate methods instead of the whole class. I'm going to use it to further optimize total_ordering. Thanks Josh Rosenberg for the tip.
