We added the method names to help provide a nudge that the issue is likely to
be a missing method implementation in the subclassing case, so I'd like to keep
them if we can find a way to make the messages accurate again.
What if we updated the offending format strings in typeobject.c to state the
exact nature of the expected argument that is missing?
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "object.__init__() takes exactly one
argument (the instance to initialize)");
PyErr_Format(PyExc_TypeError, "%.200s.__init__() takes exactly one argument
(the instance to initialize)", type->tp_name);
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "object.__new__() takes exactly one
argument (the type to instantiate)")
