callable and iter are not the same thing though.  callable checks for
a capability.  iter invokes a capability.  The direct comparision
would be collections.abc.Iterable.__subclasshook__ (e.g.
isinstance(obj, Iterable)), which behaves exactly like callable does
(does not invoke the descriptor protocol).  See
Lib/_collections_abc.py.
