alex thank you very much!

I searched excessively python mailing list but unforurtunately I was
using <site:mail.python.org "def self method"> as query and I missed
it, although I knew it should had been there. I mostly found threads
insisting on a complete removal...

And I sincerely apologise for missing the discussion here, I was tired
digging python old mailing list. :D.

Lot of thanks again, that's what I wanted to find, arguments against
it, I was aware I wan not speaking of sth new.
