As for the issue of what should and shouldn't exist in Python, it doesn't really matter; PEP 246 doesn't (and can't!) prohibit transitive adaptation.

Really? Then isn't it underspecified? I'd think that by the time we actually implement PEP 246 in the Python core, this part of the semantics should be specified (at least the default behavior, even if there are hooks to change this).
