In addition to the above, if a major revision is made to pty, I'd suggest also addressing the issue of "master/slave" terminology, and replace it with something comparable like "parent/child". There's an open devguide issue (https://github.com/python/devguide/issues/605) to more explicitly state terms to avoid, and support for avoiding usage of "slave/master" seems uncontroversial (especially in any new code).
