This issue is not about built-in types in the builtins module, as documented Lib Ref chapter 5 Built-in Types. Collections is an Python-coded stdlib module that happens to import a couple of its classes from _collections, written in C for speed. My bad - not precise enough! I meant all the stdlib types rather than the builtin types.
