I stand corrected. I had thought the trampoline ("bound method object")

Assuming that bound methods are immutable, this is an implementation
detail, either way. However, it is common for a specific method to be
called just once on a specific instance. If you have a mixed-case string
Ss and want the lowercase version, ss = Ss.lower(), you keep ss around
as long as needed. If the bound method is needed repeatedly, you can
keep *that* around too.

spush = stack.append
spop = stack.pop
for item in it:
spush(item)
while stack and condition:
p = process(spop)
