This seems rather reasonable.
Indeed, and it leads to a rather pleasant way of permuting syntax to change the order of operations, i.e. a(b(c)) vs. a(b)(c).
I like the explicit dot method much better, __call__ (parentheses) can mean anything, and reading the code will be more difficult. (especially when switching from matlab)
