No, it prevents them being used in the presence of super().
Multiple inheritance is still possible the old-fashioned way
using explicit upcalls as long as the classes are sufficiently
independent.

If they're *not* sufficiently independent, and haven't been
specifically designed to cooperate with each other, attempting
to make them cooperate automatically is as likely to do harm
as good.
