Tim Peters <t...@python.org> added the comment:

I favor making this a structseq, primarily based on Paul's attempt to find 
actual use cases, which showed that named member access would be most useful 
most often.  I have no intuition for that myself, because while I wrote the 
original functions here, I've never used them and never will ;-)  But if I ever 
did, I'd probably want the ISO week number, and would appreciate not having to 
remember which meaningless index means "week".

Don't care about moving pickles to older versions.

Don't care about the putative speed hit - it's still measured in nanoseconds, 
so can still create over a million per second.  In apps with a large number of 
dates, they're typically not _calculated_, but read up from a relatively 
snail-like database or network connection.  I doubt anyone would notice if 
`.isocalendar()` got 10x slower.

Note:  I'm unassigning myself, because I have nothing else to say :-)
