Even with 3.6 I get a different result:
```
Python 3.6.13 (tags/v3.6.13:aa73e1722e, Mar 23 2021, 15:45:49)
[GCC 9.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> help(open('/dev/zero').writelines)
Help on built-in function writelines:
writelines(lines, /) method of _io.TextIOWrapper instance
```
This appears to be because TextIOWrapper.writelines just didn't have a
docstring in 3.6. I can't explain why `help` just gave you the repr of the
method, though.
