So I think there are multiple behaviors that are being described here and I
think there is validity in being able to potentially patch/modify
definitions when absolutely necessary, but I wonder if there's room here
for something in-between (also, I find the 'import export' or 'export
import'

That's already
Whenever you extend the definition of an operation (`__iter__` in this case) to
more existing objects, you lose a little bit of the ability to catch errors
early. Consider the function:
def traverse(something):
for x in something:
# do stuff

For my part, I don't like that approach -- I really believe in KISS. That
