It's more of a "can't be an instance method" than a strict "only classmethod". Can I ask why you want it to be a strictmethod instead of a classmethod? I personally don't want to change the docs as I think that encourages a potentially bad situation where someone meant to have a classmethod and didn't realize the difference between that and staticmethod. But if there's a legitimate need for staticmethod then I'm open to reconsidering how the docs are written. ---------- nosy: +brett.cannon _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36569> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
