Methods are not bound during instance creation, they are bound during access. You can use descriptors to implement "custom method binding". Descriptors are defined on the class (and do not behave as descriptors when defined on instances). Thus, you would need a metaclass or `__inist_subclass__` is you want your "custom method binding" globally. For many methods (but usually not the `__...__` methods), you can take over the binding in `__new__` or `__init__` and populate the instance with prebound methods. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
