[issue19251] bitwise ops for bytes of equal length

I don't understand what relation this issue has with Nick's use case. If you need to access separate fields in a binary packed structure, adding support of extended PEP 3118 like syntax in memoryview can help you. If you want to to alter separate bits, you may need something like a bit array view. If you need to change specific physical memory, you need a different view object (maybe something in ctypes). But what relation all this have with b'123' ^ b'abc'?
