There's a difference between "private", "stable for 3.x" and "stable for all 3" 
though. It's the third category that's getting too many functions added without 
due consideration.

I proposed something different:
"Python 3.7: remove all private C functions from the Python C API?"

Create subdirectories in Include/ to define private functions in
different files.
