[issue23549] heapq docs should be more precise about how to access the smallest element

Eli Bendersky added the comment: I could continue the discussion about databases, but it feels like a waste of time to me. The main principle is: If something has an important property (in this case an enum object's numerical value), it should be publicly exposed. Period. No need to spend
