The two terms I've got out of this thread are "callable attributes" (instance/static/class methods, etc) and "data attributes" (everything else). Both seem reasonable to me, creating two largely disjoint sets that together cover all the different kinds of attribute you're likely to encounter.
But "callable attributes" aren't the same thing as methods; most are methods, but not all. Sometimes, they're data used by the object. The fact that data attributes can be callable is irrelevant. -Fred -- Fred L.
