Note the standard `dir()` proviso:

"Because dir() is supplied primarily as a convenience for use at an
interactive prompt, it tries to supply an interesting set of names
more than it tries to supply a rigorously or consistently defined set
of names, and its detailed behavior may change across releases."

Off the top of my head I'd say you'd use `__slots__` if it exists,
otherwise use `__dict__`. But I'm thinking this is possibly a FAQ that
has a "proper" answer someone else will point to.
