1. the example was for confuting your assertion that an implementation
of sequences as extended classes of maps violate the map contract.
2. I already linked a real-world example previously. Google it and you
can find tons of examples like that.

I do not understand what you mean with this example. A zip object is
not a sequence nor a map. My definition of sequences as "ordered maps
with integer keys that start from zero and have no gaps" is perfectly
valid as I demonstrated to you, while zip objects have nothing in
common with sequences and maps, apart the fact they are all iterables.
