Gregory P. Smith added the comment:

I used it because Mark suggested it could have the same behavior as round() and 
that is the more abstract API that round uses.  Regardless, at this point I've 
added tests and tested for the TypeError when a float is passed as well as 
testing that the only valid values (2..36) all work.

I did not test to see that something supporting __index__ works as Mark 
suggests because I don't know off the top of my head of anything that does and 
it seems like a pointless thing to care about for this API.

If you want something different, feel free to change the code.  I'm done with 
this issue.
