Josh Rosenberg added the comment: It seems odd to have a slice of a deque return a list. Are there any other examples of non-buffer protocol objects behaving like this in the standard library/built-ins? Only examples I can come up with are mmap objects and ctypes arrays (which are making raw binary data available in Python); it seems rather surprising that a Python level type like deque would slice to produce a list.
