As per the python-ideas thread at https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2014-February/025226.html the statistics.mode() function currently passes its argument directly to the collections.Counter() constructor. This results in Counter() objects being special-cased rather than treated as ordinary iterables. For the main API, it seems more appropriate to force treatment as an iterable by calling iter() on the argument before passing it to the Counter() constructor. I'll file a separate RFE about making it easier and more efficient to use the statistics module with weight/frequency mappings. |

Issue 20479 covers providing tools for efficiently working with weight/frequency mappings in 3.5 (and presumably the statslib PyPI module) |
