Did you actually test that?

py> class X(object):
...     def __getattribute__(self, name):
...         if __name__ == '__class__':
...             return int
...         return super().__getattribute__(name)
...
py> x = X()
py> x.__class__
<class '__main__.X'>

Certain attributes like __class__ and __dict__ are special.
