I agree - this whole discussion still sounds like things are getting
overly strict.
OTOH, in Greg's case maybe he should just not bother inheriting from
the ABC. From what I hear, that shouldn't cause him any problems
("duck typing isn't going away" is the message I've heard). Of course,
it's difficult to be sure without specific examples (on either side of
the debate).
