That seems fair. 

Also, as you pointed out on #25958, at least one other ABC has the same problem 
as Iterable: you can block the "in" operator by setting __contains__=None, but 
you'll still be a Container. So, do we want to go through all of the existing 
ABCs and make sure they all do this negative check, instead of just Iterable?

If an implementation doesn't raise a TypeError there, that's a failure. If it 
raises one with a different (possibly less helpful) message, I think that's 
just a quality-of-implementation issue, isn't it?
