"Support heterogeneous lists" ==> "Yes (array)"
This is nonsense, and has always been.
Python lists (not arrays) have always been heterogeneous. They store
objects and don't care about the type. Python arrays (from the array
module) are homogeneous, and limited to storing numerical data.
Quite a
different beast.
He means that Python lists are implemented using arrays, not that the
Python "array" module provides the functionality.
