Quoting the Sphinx documentation:

Since index directives generate cross-reference targets at their location in the source, it makes sense to put them before the thing they refer to – e.g. a heading

As such I'm not sure about this change, the missing anchor should be fixed upstream instead. Possibly something to do with the reference label messing with the anchor? I suggest you open an issue in sphinx-doc/sphinx repository.

Every other adjacent file I looked in has it heading then index so I thought that was the convention here

pair: object; memoryview

MemoryView objects
------------------

.. index::
pair: object; memoryview

A :class:`memoryview` object exposes the C level :ref:`buffer interface
<bufferobjects>` as a Python object which can then be passed around like
any other object.
