Great job! I've added a link to that to the PEP. There are two improvements you could make: - Some of the functions in the first list return Py_ssize_t; calling them can cause truncation if the result value is larger than INT_MAX (and it is assigned to an int). To find those functions, do grep 'PyAPI_FUNC(Py_ssize_t)' Include/*.h - Usage of the "old" function pointer type name (e.g. intobjargproc) likely also indicates an error, since many of these pointers have changed there types. I believe the only exception for this is inquiry, which still has legit uses, in nb_nonzero, tp_clear, and tp_is_gc.
