We can populate that struct with array-specific alternatives for PySequence/PyMappingMethods and eliminate the need for dynamically created array types to allocate those. There is also a way to introduce PyArrayMethods at no cost to current implementation: we can rename tp_reserved (formerly known as tp_compare) to tp_as_array.
