[New-bugs-announce] [issue15085] set.union accepts not set iterables for all but the first argument.

[Stefan Krastanov]

New submission from Stefan Krastanov <krastanov.stefan at gmail.com>:

>>> set.union(set([1,2]), [3])
set([1, 2, 3])

>>> set.union([1,2], [3])
TypeError: descriptor 'union' requires a 'set' object but received a 'list'


It seems a bit inconsistent. Is it justified somehow?
