I checked and io.TextIOBase is the only io.IOBase subclass to lack one of read, 
readinto or write:


>>> import io, inspect
>>> for name, obj in inspect.getmembers(io, predicate=inspect.isclass):
...     missing = {'read', 'readinto', 'write'} - {name for name, _ in 
inspect.getmembers(obj)}
...     if issubclass(obj, io.IOBase) and missing:
...          print(obj, missing, issubclass(obj, io.TextIOBase))

<class 'io.IOBase'> {'write', 'read', 'readinto'} False
<class '_io.StringIO'> {'readinto'} True
<class 'io.TextIOBase'> {'readinto'} True
<class '_io.TextIOWrapper'> {'readinto'} True

I can open a PR to fix the conflicts between the two parts of the 
documentation. I think it's appropriate to change TextIOBase to raise 
UnsupportedOperation when calling readinto and to change the documentation 
accordingly.
