I parsed the documentation this way:

"Several built-in types such as list and dict do not directly support
weak references" (true)

"but [all of those that do not directly support weak references] can add
support through subclassing"

I would expect there to be exactly two groups of items:
- types that support weak references directly
- types where it can be added through subclassing

Is there some technical reason why int, tuple, and others cannot support
it through subclassing?
