[issue40032] Remove explicit inheriting of object in class definitions

[Steven D'Aprano]

Steven D'Aprano <steve+python at pearwood.info> added the comment:

Code churn for no good reason is not a good idea. I cannot think of any good reasons to change this:

- it doesn't add new functionality;
- it doesn't fix bugs;
- it doesn't make the code easier to maintain;
- it makes the code LESS clear instead of more clear;
- PEP 8 doesn't have an opinion on whether to explicitly or implicitly inherit from object;
- but the Zen of Python ("import this") does.

Do you have any good reasons for removing the explicit inheritance from object?
