Per 
https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-...@python.org/thread/GJTREADEXYAETECE5JDTPYWK4WMTKYGR/
 we want to revert this change for 3.11 as it causes adoption pain for little 
benefit.

To determine if we should proceed with this in 3.12 or future versions, run a 
stable Python with this change applied on the test suites of external projects 
to find regressions.  (many will have been addressed by then thanks to the work 
by RedHat)

and remember that those are only open source projects. Peoples internal 
codebases are full of use of these names and this will prevent upgrading until 
they take the time to address those.

There are targeted pieces of this change that may make sense to go forward with 
individually.  But it is easier to reason about after a rollback and consider 
new PRs to move those forward.
