Regardless of the intention of the _xx... author, intransitive equality is objectionable as it violates the assumption of sets and dicts.  We went through this before with decimal.Decimal when the original implementation had 1.0 == 1 == Decimal(1) but 1.0 != Decimal(1).  The latter was fixed.  Here, I think the fix should be to not make the id be equal to everything it can be derived from.
