Can somebody tell me why we are looking at the word "Any" instead of
"Object" or "PyObject." I think that it is useful to encourage people to
think of Python's type system as a graph and not a set. Or to put it
another way, we should emphasize what is common about all Python objects
like the ability to convert them to a string.
