Ok, thanks.
The consistency argument is strong, also Antoine's suggestion to use the return type of read() as a discriminant.

also please excuse me because I am not a habitual user of Python 3 and haven't become used to the str/binary dichotomy yet.  I didn´t know, for instance, about io.BytesIO until I found to my horror that io.StringIO.read() would output unicode (i.e str).
