It's no different from overriding any of the builtins with a
non-standard value:

>>> int = float
>>> float = str
>>> str = lambda x: none
>>> str = lambda x: None
>>> file = 'elif'      

If someone wants to be abusive, he can.  The idea behind Python is that
everyone will behave like adults, so there's little need to worry about
these kinds of things.
