`iter()` doesn't require a "collection"

Documentation

The documentation for iter() says, for the one-argument form:

iter(iterable, /)

Return an iterator object. [...] the single argument must be a collection object which supports the iterable protocol (the __iter__() method), or it must support the sequence protocol (the __getitem__() method with integer arguments starting at 0). If it does not support either of those protocols, TypeError is raised.

This terminology is misleading, since a "collection" also needs to support size and containment checking. Per set and Collections Abstract Base Classes, respectively:

Like other collections, sets support x in set, len(set), and for x in set.

Collection : Sized, Iterable, Container : __contains__, __iter__, __len__

It should be possible to reword this section to avoid the term "collection", either by simply removing it or rephrasing the whole sentence.

Commencez par la forme de iter() prenant un argument dans la documentation des fonctions intégrées. Examinez la formulation autour des protocoles « iterable » et « sequence », puis confirmez que le terme « collection » est supprimé ou reformulé afin de ne pas impliquer la prise en charge de la taille et de l’appartenance.
