 Other CPython Implementation Changes
 ====================================
 
-* Special methods :meth:`complex.__complex__` and :meth:`bytes.__bytes__` are implemented to
-  support :class:`typing.SupportsComplex` and :class:`typing.SupportsBytes` protocols.
+* The special methods :meth:`~object.__complex__` for :class:`complex`
+  and :meth:`~object.__bytes__` for :class:`bytes` are implemented to support
+  the :class:`typing.SupportsComplex` and :class:`typing.SupportsBytes` protocols.

-* ``siphash13`` is added as a new internal hashing algorithms. It has similar security
-  properties as ``siphash24`` but it is slightly faster for long inputs. ``str``, ``bytes``,
-  and some other types now use it as default algorithm for :func:`hash`. :pep:`552`
-  hash-based pyc files now use ``siphash13``, too.

   any values added to ``module_search_paths``.
