@vstinner : Not sure how common this "resize/discard then take_bytes" is going to be; might make sense to change to take_bytes(n=None, /, *, discard=False)

for now planning to keep that in back pocket until need many ways (ba.resize(n) or del ba[:n] gives the same capability)

Can you also update RawIOBase.read() in the _pyio module?

If want to maintain closer compatibility when a
BufferErroroccurs can fall back to a copy (copying is as safe as the original code). I have a slight preference to erroring as I think keeping a reference to the memory is uncommon (and probably unintended).bytearraytobytesin rawiobase_read() implementation #60107
