Copied from https://bugs.python.org/issue40512#msg399847:

Victor: PyStructSequence_InitType2() is not compatible with subinterpreters: it uses static types. Moreover, it allocates tp_members memory which is not released when the type is destroyed. But I'm not sure that the type is ever destroyed, since this API is designed for static types.

IMO, I suggest to create a new function, PyStructSequence_FromModuleAndDesc(module, desc, flags) to create a heaptype and don't aloocates memory block for tp_members,something like 'PyType_FromModuleAndSpec()`.
