Which it doesn't, as exemplified in e8c87226bcb3 :-)

Also, PyList_SET_ITEM and friends.

Should we limit ourselves to bound errors? Couldn't we make the macros aliases for their full-fledged function equivalents (e.g. PyTuple_SetItem()) which trigger Py_FatalError() on error so we also get argument type checking?

Oh, I didn't know this old issue (6 years old). I wrote an implementation of this issue for PyTuple_GET_ITEM/SET_ITEM: bpo-35337. Would you mind to have a look? It seems to be backward incompatible when these macros are misused on structseq.

Since bpo-35337 has been rejected, I also close this issue.
