	Only that many of us don't believe Python has /variables/, the use
of instance/class as a modifier is thereby moot.

	An instance method is a method that works on an instance of the
class, whereas a class method is meant to work on the class as a
whole... I don't know of anyone arguing that Python does not have
"methods"...
