Yes, bytes objects have some advantages. But if a bytes object is desired, it can always be created from bytes-like object. If a BufferedIOBase instance is required to only provide bytes objects, this conversion is forced even when it may not be necessary.

If someone is willing to do the work (and I am), is there a reason *not* to allow TextIOWrapper to accept bytes-like objects?
