My understanding of the Python object model was that all attributes are
stored in the __dict__ attribute.  One can avoid creating __dict__ by
specifying __slots__, a fixed list of strings of names of attributes.

SymPy only sort of follows this - I'm confused and am looking for
explanation

In [1]: Basic.__slots__
Out[1]: ['_mhash', '_args', '_assumptions']

In [2]: Mul.__slots__
Out[2]: []

Questions:

1.  Doesn't this claim that Mul has no attributes?
2.  Should _assumptions be on Basic or on Symbol?
3.  Is there any fundamental way to determine all identifying information
of a Python class?
