STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment:

We may also accept TextIOWrapper (eg. sys.stdin) *and*
BufferedReader/FileIO (eg. sys.stdin.buffer). It is possible to test the
type of the stream. With a TextIOWrapper, the raw buffer can be read
using stream.buffer.

But for StringIO/BytesIO: only BytesIO should be accepted.
