R. David Murray added the comment:

Ah, now I see what you are talking about.  Yes, your revision in the comment is 
clearer; but, unless I read it wrong, in the patch it now sounds like you are 
saying that ''.splitlines() does not return the same result as ''.split() when 
in fact it does.

I would also prefer that the "differences" discussion come in the separate 
paragraph after the specification of the behavior of the function, rather than 
the way you have it split up in the patch.  I would include the mention of the 
lack-of-extra-line as part of the differences discussion: as I said I think 
that behavior follows logically from the fact that the function is splitting 
lines and so doesn't belong in the basic function description.
