You quoted a long message from Guido where he 1) agreed that interning
is an internal language implementation feature and 2) said the
following: 

"""
  Maybe this could be done as follows:

      if (v == w && PyString_CheckExact(v)) return 0;
"""

I don't see a comment that says "maybe this could be done as follows"
as agreement that it should be done.  I don't even seen a +0.

No consensus as far as I can tell.
