Not so.
The charm of introspection is that the introspection
itself can be introspected.
For that to be convincing there needs to be a good combo
of clarity and succinctness. In particular why not reduce
the two functions to one?
def get_abc_names(cls):
return [abc.__name__ for abc in abcs if issubclass(cls,abc)]
