Except that since we're discussing design for multiple inheritance,
the positional argument "spam" is inappropriate. All arguments should
be passed by keyword; the DolorSitAmet.__init__ method cannot be
certain that LoremIpsum will be the next class in the MRO, and the
actual next class might not expect spam to be the first positional
argument.
