The special methods __complex__ and __bytes__ are not present on the corresponding builtin types. Compare this to __int__ and __float__, which do exist on int and float, respectively. Should we add the eponymous methods to complex and bytes? (This came up in the context of PEP 484: https://github.com/ambv/typehinting/issues/68#issuecomment-88130156 )
