That's not all that different from Python, where object() returns a
fresh instance at each invocation. However:

   >>> object().x = 3
   Traceback (most recent call last):
     File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
   AttributeError: 'object' object has no attribute 'x'

Why are object instances immutable in Python?
