*Maybe* the "built-in status" should guide the
capitalization, so only built-in types are lowercase (str, int, dict
etc.).

That makes sense.


Anyway, it seems the collections module in particular is already
internally inconsistent -- NamedTuple vs. defaultdict.

FWIW, namedtuple() is a factory function that creates a class, it isn't
a class itself.  There are no instances of namedtuple().  Most functions
are all lowercase.  Don't know if that applies to factory functions too.
