Plenty of points were raised against having this members= API. People
argued ardently both ways .Guido publicly asked to decide in favor of the
functional API, and we added an explicit warning about pickling (which was
lifted from the docs of pickle itself). If you feel this has to be
discussed further, please open a new thread. I don't want another 100
bikeshedding emails to go into this one.

We'll mention this as a considered alternative in the PEP, though.

Not true, as you see.
