[snip ipython interactive session showing that the answer is "Yes"]

You answered your own question: yes it is. What's your point? That's not 
a rhetorical question -- I genuinely don't understand why you raise 
this. Do you see the existence of inspect.* as negating the usefulness 
of giving functions a more useful repr? As proof that the information is 
available? Something else?
