Dennis, > "del instance" only deletes the NAME. [snip]
Yep, I already assumed that that would happen. Just wanted to keep it simple. > "instance" xyz does not shadow "class" xyz... instead, the name "xyz" > only exists in the binding to the instance. That is what I tried to say: the name-binding to the class is removed. > However, that instance has a binding to the class object, And than when the instance is deleted the binding to the class is lost, and as a result it is garbage-collected.
