My plan was to fix as much bugs in the stdlib and backport workaround to 3.9 and 3.10, then propose to revert this "feature" in 3.11.

There is a risk of introducing some regressions by this change, but we can handle it. I think it is better to do it now and fix potential bugs in third-party code (we cannot add workarounds in all third-party code) than keep this weird special case forever.
