What if the following happens?
1. For some reason (possibly because of this thread), people discover
instancemethod and start using it.
2. People realize that it's slow.
3. It needs to be made more efficient, causing new code bloat and
maintenance burden.
clearly *some* folks have a use for it.
I'm not convinced. I don't think that instancemethod is the right
solution for functools.total_ordering for example.
