Why do you describe these issues (this one, #38069, #38071-#38076, maybe more) as making the module PEP 384 compatible? There is no reason to make the built-in modules stick to the limited API, and it doesn't look like you're doing that in any event (among other things, pretty sure Argument Clinic generated code isn't limited API compatible yet, though that might be changing?).

Seems like the main (only?) change you're making is to convert all static types to dynamic types. Which is fine, if it's necessary for PEP 554, but it seems only loosely related to PEP 384 (which defined mechanisms for "statically" defining dynamic heap types, but that wasn't the main thrust).
