Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment:

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.
