No, it would boil down to explicit+speed+readability+maintainability vs implicit+error prone. It would mean that as well as the interpreter having to search the instance to work out whether each name referenced an attribute or a global the reader would also have to perform the same search. It would mean that adding a new attribute to an instance would change the meaning of the methods which is a recipe for disaster. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
