Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment:

I think you're reading "equivalence" too strictly here to mean "exactly the 
same semantics". In this instance it means "for similar functionality, the 
equivalent method is ..." (admittedly this might be a quirk of the use of the 
word "equivalent" in North American English).

But I can see why you would interpret it the way you do. Please feel free to 
propose a PR to clarify the phrasing.
