Cython seems to me rather different from what the original post was talking about. If I put
class Foo: def bar(self): pass in a .pyx file and run it through Cython, the result is a 5600-line, 200-kilobyte lump of C that clearly isn't meant to be understood or modified by human beings. It is mostly boilerplate, but not the sort of boilerplate that could serve as the starting point for an extension module written (entirely) in C.
