It is easy to implement a function in C.

Why does it need to be a PyCFunction? You could put an actual method descriptor in the class. In other words, use PyDescr_NewMethod() instead of PyCFunction_New() + PyInstanceMethod_New(). It's probably going to be faster too since the instancemethod adds an unoptimized extra level of indirection.

PyDescr_NewMethod() takes PyTypeObject* which is not known at that moment. But maybe passing &PyBaseObject_Type will make a trick. I need to try.

Yes, this is what I want to do. I did not do this only because
implementing method-like functions which which do not belong to concrete
class implemented in C is not convention.

Sure, you could implement separate methods like __gt__ in C, but that's still less efficient than just implementing a specific tp_richcompare for total_ordering and then having the usual wrapper descriptors for __gt__.

At Python level we can monkeypatch __gt__, but not tp_richcompare.

In any case, removing a C API is a large breakage, and it is better to avoid it unless that API is inherently broken.
