Nitpick. hw did not overload keywords. Python does not allow keywords to
be overloaded.  Instead hw overwrote type names.  Upon learning that
type names are not keywords and can be overwritten, hw aw asked a
legitimate question: why does Python allow you to do that?  I don't
believe the OP found the answer acceptable, though.
