> Should we use Py_SIZE or _PyDict_GET_SIZE?

I prefer _PyDict_GET_SIZE() just to make the code more readable: it helps to repeat the type of variables.

Moreover, it can give you a free check on the type if you agree my suggestion to add an assertion into the macro directly.

Technically, it's already possible to use Py_SIZE() on lists and tuples, but PyTuple_GET_SIZE() and PyList_GET_SIZE() are used almost everywhere, again, for readability.
