>In those examples you start with an object, call a method on the object returning a new object, then call a method on that and so on. I like this kind of chaining in OOP.

Not really, I already know what it is and use it all the time. I mean, I just wrote about it. Plus I don't program in python.

Honestly, I just opened your page and it's not a great example. Consider the method chaining in the linked article that operates on an array, it's much closer to real problems imo, and more succinct.
