I have seen a couple of objections to leaving unbound methods naked (as functions) when retrieved in 3.0. Here is a plus.

A c.l.p poster reported that 2.6 broke his code because the addition of default rich comparisons to object turned tests like hassattr(ob, '__lt__') from False to True.

For the record, the post is:

The obvious fix ob.__lt__ == object.__lt__ does not work because
wrapping makes it always False, even when conceptually true.  In
3.0, that equality test works.  (I pointed him to 'object' in
repr(ob.__lt__) as a workaround.  Others posted others.)

Assuming ob is an instance object,

It was a class derived from object.  I should have made that clearer.
