No, Jeroen is right here. Ordinary extension authors do not need to understand and implement PEP 576 and 580. First, it's rare for extension types to be callable. Second, even if an extension type is callable, implementing PEP 576 or 580 is only useful if tp_call overhead is really important. In any case, just using tp_call will be as good as it was before. There is no regression, hence it is incorrect to say that we place an additional burden on the shoulders of extension authors. Yes, they can learn an additional PEP to increase tp_call performance; but they don't have to.
