It makes dict more complicated.


FWIW, PEP 520 (Preserving Class Attribute Definition Order) originally
specified leaving the class namespace alone.  Instead, the default class
*definition* namespace was changed to OrderedDict, and the ordering from
that namespace was stored as a tuple of names in a new __definition_order__
attribute on classes.  That approach effectively decoupled the final class
namespace from the proposed feature.

If it's an issue now then we might consider reviving __definition_order__
(which, as a bonus, has other minor benefits).  However, I expect we will
make the current dict implementation's behavior official, which renders any
changes unnecessary.
