doesn't id return the address of the pointee?

Ah, yes - the value of the pointer, which is an address, the address of the pointee. (Even after reading that other thread, I messed up my terminology.)

Actually, id returns a pointer to a PyObject representing an integer, the value of which is the value of the pointer that was passed as an argument, which is the address of the pointee. Right?
