No worries, this way is not obvious.
If you have multiple modules/packages, horrors can evolve where a class method could be patched in an unknown location by any loaded module (or you could even introduce order-of-import sensitivities).
Folks can still do that nightmare right now. I'm -0.5 on it -- I don't think the payoff is worth the pain. But I'm +1 on writing a PEP -- collect all these pros and cons in one place to save on future discussion.
