[Python-projects] possible pylint improvement? "Method could be a function"

[Connor, Adam J]

Hi, 
For R0201, "Method could be a function", Pylint gives me false positives
on implementations like

    def __lt__(self, other):
        return NotImplemented

even though this would seem a correct implementation when the operation
is not supported.

There are lots of possible ways to address it. Currently, I have to turn
the warnings off, but that is not ideal. I'd rather just turn them off
for methods starting with double underscores.

Thanks for the product, though; it is very handy.

sincerely,
adam connor
