[Guido van Rossum] PEP 351 - freeze protocol. I'm personally -1; I don't like the idea of freezing arbitrary mutable data structures. Are there champions who want to argue this?

It has at least one anti-champion. I think it is a horrible idea and would like to see it rejected in a way that brings finality. If needed, I can elaborate in a separate thread. Could you please do that? I'd like to understand all of your objections. Thanks!

Better yet, add them to the PEP.
