Unfortunately, the existence of the PyListGETXXX macros means that perfectly legal extension modules would break if you do something like changing the order of the fields.
The new field can be added at the end of the current list header struct.
Is it more important to try and keep binary compatibility for these 99%, or to force a reproducible segfault in the remaining 1%?
That question didn't make sense .
