Sure. Since I started writing Python long before new-style classes were
around, I have lots of classic classes. My default is thus to use classic
classes in preference to new-style classes, for much the same semantic
reasons as you.

Again, we're actually thinking along the same lines. Classic classes work
just fine for me, so I've been slow to let the new-style class meme permeate
through my brain.
