And random pieces of C included in the standard library can be shuffled under the carpet under the disguise of upgrade or what are you suggesting?

The sort of thing that happens is that the relevant approvers will accept python-dev as a "trusted supplier" and then Python upgrades are acceptable subject to review of the changes, etc. For a new module, there is a whole other level of questions around how do we trust the person who developed the code, do we need to do a full code review, etc?

It's a bit unfair to describe the process as "random pieces of C" being "shuffled under the carpet". (Although there probably are environments where that is uncomfortably close to the truth :-()
