Having said that, it would sure be nice to be able to write

I can agree with this.
But I guess that could only work if there were only one empty list
that represents all empty lists (as there is only one actual "None").
I don't know if that makes sense or not.
I mean in general. I wouldn't spell it like that. I would prefer if
empty(x), with an __empty__ method. (And support __nonzero__ aka
__bool__ dropped completely.)

__nonzero__ is not only meaningful for sequence types.
