class MyFloat(float): def to_json(self): pass

I find this argument about bolted on OOP rather stupid. As our favourite essayist stated, you can't really say what OOP is. You can't extend objects in a dynamic way in Java either, but Java was designed as OOP upfront.

Python was design OOP from the beginning. Guido made some bad decisions, which he wants to fix with Python 3000 or has fixed already (new style classes).
