Wrong. You don't have "myobject.my_really_long_method_name" alone, you have
an assignment here.


#- Another example:
#- 
#-     def test(meth):
#-         o
#-         o
#-         o
#-         meth(a)
#-         o
#-         o
#-         o
#- 
#-     myobject = MyClass()
#-     test(myobject.some_method)
#-     test(myobject.some_other_method)
#- 
#- In this example, we've used a method as a parameter.

But you're using it in a function call! It's not alone!
