[issue41409] deque.pop(index) is not supported

I don't think it's very common to write code that needs to work with any MutableSequence but not with any Sequence. I think that's the only situation where missing support for deque.pop(index) is a problem.

Maybe deque should be a Sequence but not a MutableSequence. Or maybe there should be a way to say "MutableSequence does not require support for .pop(index) even though you get it by inheriting from MutableSequence".
