Use __slots__ they will simply give you an error. But at the same time
I don't think they are inheritable and in general you should only use
slots for performance reasons (even then test before using).
Or you could also simulate a __slots__ mechanism the way you are doing
i.e. checking the attribu

In [5]: class some_class(object):
...: def __init__(self, a=None):
...: self.a = a
...:
