I said that if I need "immutable instance", I won't hestiate to use __slot__, I didn't say I have a need.
In other words, I see __slot__ as a solution to the problem, I am not saying I have the problem in the first place. The "practicabilty beats purity" is used to support this using __slot__ situation, not about the need of immutable instance. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
