Question about inheritance in cssselect.py

lxml v.4.9 cssselect.py:CSSSelector.__init__ calls on `etree.XPath.__init__(self, path, namespaces=namespaces)` to initialize the parent class. Is there a reason why `super()` or even `super(CSSSelector, self)__init__...` is not used? I bring this up as if I attempt to monkey patch (private project) `etree.XPath.__init__` the current code causes an error ``` TypeError: super(type, obj): obj must be an instance or subtype of type ``` while replacing it with the suggested use of `super()` fixes my error.


I thought I was going nuts too, but this is why I kept on getting this error. Simply quitting and re-entering Python fixed it. https://slope-unblocked.co
