[issue31283] Inconsistent behaviours with explicit and implicit inheritance from object

[shadowadler]

shadowadler added the comment:

I accept what you are saying as consistent. Nevertheless, the documentation states that the two examples I gave should yield identical results. They do not, they perform different actions, albeit subtly.

Ergo, this is unexpected behaviour from a documentation point of view, if nothing else. If we are to maintain the fiction that these two things are equivalent, then they should yield the same result. If they are not equivalent, then we should state that this is the case explicitly.
