Right, but the as clause does NOT affect sys.modules -- the entry in
sys.modules will still be sys.modules['alpha.Person']. I doubt this
matters, but since the OP had very specifically askd about "in
sys.modules" I thought it better to clarify.
If you want to make fake entries in sys.modules you need to do that
explicitly,importing sys and assigning to the entry:
sys.modules['veryweird'] = extremely_tricky_stuph
The only purpose of that is to "fool" future "import veryweird"
statements (executed under any circumstances) to use said extremely
tricky stuph. NOT recommended unless you know what you're doing.
