Anthony Sottile <asott...@umich.edu> added the comment:

I think the main concern here is ease in portability coupled with the 
incorrectness of the current message (pointed out in 
https://bugs.python.org/issue31550#msg302738)

For instance it was consistent in 2.7.1, but not later on in the 2.7.x tree.  
*And* it's different than python3 (for no good reason?)

The message is misleading as well, it's not looking for __getitem__ on the 
instance but on the type.
