by somehow changing the original instance

Instances of Python-coded classes can usually have __class__ changed. But not for builtin, C-coded classes, which I assume

Given that socket appears to be immutable, I believe Mysocket would need a __new__ method that called socket.__new__. But I have never worked with __new__ functions.
