Or even `all(itertools.starmap(operator.eq, zip(a, b)))` if you prefer, but this isn’t about how easy or clever or obfuscated one can write that; it’s about convenience. ABCs expose the lowest common denominator for concrete classes of their kind, and having __eq__ makes sense for Sequence (I’m surprised that it’s not already in).
I think we can skip the Python-ideas thread and go straight to opening an issue and submitting a patch :) Neil, care to do that?
