New submission from Joshua Cannon <joshdcan...@gmail.com>:
I would expect the following to work:
```
>>> import pathlib
>>> pathlib.Path.cwd().parents[0:1]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "...\Python36\lib\pathlib.py", line 593, in __getitem__
if idx < 0 or idx >= len(self):
TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'slice' and 'int'
```
Since pathlib documents `parents` as a sequence-type, and slicing a sequence is
pretty standard behavior.
