""" The details above show that the mechanism for descriptors is embedded in the __getattribute__() methods for object, type, and super. Classes inherit this machinery when they derive from object or if they have a meta-class providing similar functionality. Likewise, classes can turn-off descriptor invocation by overriding __getattribute__(). """
