So the tradeoff you propose is:
- Honour "explicit is better than implicit", but users are confused
over "why do I need to declare the instance in the method
signature?"
against
- Break "explicit is better than implicit", take away some of the
flexibility in Python, and users are confused over "where the heck
did this 'self' thing come from?" or "how the heck do I refer to
the instance object?"
I don't see a net gain by going with the latter.
