What about them?

The message you quoted was about how in Python 2 (but not 3) you could
destructure parameters:
sorted({1:300, 2:4}.items(), key=lambda (key, value): value)
The wider discussion is about how if items() were a view of namedtuples instead
of just sequences you could do something even better:
sorted({1:300, 2:4}.items(), key=lambda it: it.value)
What does either of those have to do with using a dict whose keys are not
identifiers as an attribute dictionary for an object? Neither restoring Python
2’s parameter destructuring nor making items namedtuples would in any way
affect any of the code you wrote.
