> Moving INCREF and DECREF is a huge change.  It is just a future idea to prevent same type of bugs.  I think it can not be backported.

> To fix this issue with minimum performance regression, I think PR 17766 is the best solution.  So no need to revert PR 17734.

Thanks for the quick fix and the analysis. I reviewed PR 17734.
