Well, I found CONTINUE_LOOP
In opcode.py for 3.6.8 with value 119, annotated as an absolute jump.
Everything in this file is use-at-your-own-risk internal cpython detail,
subject to change with any release.
3.6.8 sure doesn't emit it for pretty basic stuff:
It is gone in 3.8.3, along with others. I believe a core developer who
added new opcodes removed unused opcodes after counting emissions of
opcodes in compiler code. As with Python, deletion of unused items is
not guaranteed to be immediate.
SETUP_LOOP, which was used in 3.6, is gone also.
