Hi,

There seems to be a proliferation of `PyThreadState *tstate` arguments being added to API and internal functions.

These changes are listed under https://bugs.python.org/issue38644.

I think that these changes are misguided. The desired results can be achieved more reliably and more simply in other ways.

The changes add bulk to the C-API and may hurt performance.
These changes are also causing a lot of churn and merge conflicts (for me at least).

So can we please stop making these changes, at least now?

Changes on this scale merit a PEP and proper discussion, rather than being added piecemeal without proper review.

Cheers,
Mark.
