Why does the list of ancestors include the class itself?

[ishirav]

See for example http://pdoc.burntsushi.net/pdoc#pdoc.Function
The list of ancestors include Function (so Function is an ancestor of itself?)

@ishirav No particular reason other than that is the display chosen for pydoc. That may not be a good reason.

Perhaps the labeling should dispel with the word "ancestor" and only use "method resolution order"? (Then I think listing the class itself there would make a little more sense.)

OK, I guess I can customize the template to omit the first classname if I prefer.
