I totally agree with you.

I think all those hacks are contrary to the dynamic Python philosophy.
Yes, 90% of Python code can be wrtitten without any dynamic features,
but the 10% left require the whole code to be dynamic, and it is those
10% that are really interesting.

And if we do need speed, i don't think *this* is the right way ! Think
rather multithreading, event, ...
