Yeah, but to do that in a single expression, you need to have all the
functions in the dictionary, so it's no improvement over
SimpleNamespace. The functions get attached to the class, not the
instance, which means they need 'self' - but without assignment, you
wouldn't be able to make much use of self anyway. Hence the call for
an example.
