Would it be prudent to rid the long-standing "argument" (pun

Something like:
class MyClass(object):
def __init__(@):
@.dummy = None
Believe or not, python3 (via Guido's time machine) already anticipated
this suggestion and you can indeed use a symbol instead of 'self':
class MyClass(object):
def __init__(ስ):
ስ.dummy = None
Apart from breaking all the tools that rely on "self" being spelt "self"
this looks like an excellent idea.
