Walter Dörwald added the comment:

That analysis seems correct to me.

Stateless and stream codecs were the original implementation. 2006 I 
implemented incremental codecs: http://bugs.python.org/issue1436130

The intent was to have stateful codecs that can work with iterators and 
generators.

When Guido began reimplementing the io machinery for Python 3 he used 
incremental codecs as the basis.
