   Plus it's not impossible that somebody could export a
name in the set of standard names from a module or a
class and accomplish something useful.  I'm having trouble
finding a convincing example, but consider

        class Debate:
...
            def agree (self, *args):
                pass    # or some real code

            def object (self, *args):
                pass    # usw.
