Michael, thanks for the quick response. Okay, I'll dig in a bit further: the
definition in SimpleLazyObject is

__class__ = property(new_method_proxy(operator.attrgetter("__class__")))

so perhaps the problem is something related to the specifics of the definition.
Here's what I found in initial exploration:

})
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Python 3, there's no __class__ property as there is in Python 2,
the fake_bool's type isn't bool, and the callable to set up the wrapped
object never gets called (which is why _wrapped is not set to True, but to
an anonymous object - this is set in SimpleLazyObject.__init__).

Puzzling!
