You're looking at it backwards; there's no particular reason this should be a method of class A since it can be used for any arbitrary object with no extra overhead. Now, if you intend to use it only for instances of A and its subclasses, the only difference would be syntactic; if you prefer x.list_cmds() from list_cmds(x), go with the method.
