Not unless you want to run around editing hundreds of modules.  To quote
someone who shall remain anonymous:

    The joy of coding Python should be in seeing short, concise,
    readable classes that express a lot of action in a small amount of
    clear code -- not in reams of trivial code that bores the reader to
    death.
