I don't like this. First of all, it's needlessly cryptic, and secondly
this allows other classes' __init__s to set attributes.
I might try setting a self._fixed flag at the end of init and do a check
if getattr(self, '_fixed', False):
raise TypeError(f"'{type(self)}' is immutable")
but this presumably comes with other problems.

This should be TypeError.
