When defining a custom __dir__ method in a class, calling dir() on said class still sorts the output. This is, imo, unexpected behaviour, especially if the order of output was specified in __dir__ and is somehow relevant. Example and more detail here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46824459/custom-dir-returns-list-of-attributes-sorted-alphabetically
