You're invoking it as __main__ and then also importing it. This gives
you two instances of your module, with two separate classes that have
the same name and (presumably) the same definition.
If you use a separate driver script, you won't see this problem.
Alternatively, simply stop checking isinstance and trust that, if
something incompatible gets passed in, it'll throw an exception
somewhere. That's usually enough.
