Message 239901 - Python tracker
If you think that the previous version was "incorrect and misleading", the bar for changes to be accepted seems pretty high for me. "grep -r" doesn't seem to find "flattened length" in Doc/*. "An object that supports the :ref:`bufferobject` and is C-contiguous, like :class:`bytes`, :class:`bytearray` or :class:`memoryview`." This implies that all memoryviews are C-contiguous.
