The latter doesn't much matter (this is just a theory to help people
realize what they've done, not an actual preventative - it's like if
someone types "quit" and it comes back with a custom repr that tells
them about quit() or EOF), but the former is the important bit here.
Not a big deal, not worth a huge amount of effort.

At best, this is something to docket away as "here's another thing
that we could do if we had an equivalent for @property at
module-level", nothing more. (Because with that, it would be pretty
easy.)
