This all seems proper to me.  In each case, an iterator is returned -- that is the documented behavior.  The specific type of iterator is allowed to vary in ways that are convenient for the implementation.

Specifically, reversed() will call __reversed__() which must return an iterator but its type is allowed to vary.  That is really convenient for handling extreme ranges separately from the fast, common case of smaller ranges.
