I'm not sure I understand what you propose to fix holes like
constructors and __subclasses__: it seems that you want to remove them
altogether (and e.g. make factory functions instead).  That would
completely break all programs, right?  I mean, there is no way such
changes would go into mainstream CPython.  Or do you propose to maintain
a CPython branch manually for the foreseeable future?  (From experience
this is a bad idea...)

A bientot,
