[issue24892] bytes.join() won't take it's own type as the argument

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon added the comment:

I agree with David. Concatenating ints to a bytes object doesn't work when you directly work with ints and bytes, and so I don't think bytes.join should special case it (Zen of Python: "Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules").

Thanks for the idea anyway, Timothy.
