ISTR pointing out on more than one occasion that a major use case for co-operative super() is in the implementation of metaclasses. The __init__ and __new__ signatures are fixed, multiple inheritance is possible, and co-operativeness is a must

Do you have a real-life example of this where multiple
inheritance is actually used?

A non-contrived example or two would be a good thing to
have in tutorials etc. where super() is discussed. It
would help to convey the kinds of situations in which
use of super() is and is not appropriate.
