This is distinct from duck typing in the general case, where you are calling a method on an object, not introspecting it. The latter is an essential part of Python, and any attempt to deprecate it is not only likely to fail, but will probably elicit enough of a defensive reaction as to drown out your other points.
All right, I'll ponder your proposed distinction. I think you have it right. Calling a method on an object doesn't seem like duck-typing to me, though.
