Can't use Motor object as property of class that inherits from ABC

Python 3 has an Abstract Base Class that declares abstract methods. An ABC subclass must implement all abstract methods, or it cannot be constructed.

ABC somehow thinks that Motor objects are unimplemented abstract base class methods:

from abc import ABC

from motor.motor_asyncio import AsyncIOMotorClient

db = AsyncIOMotorClient().test

class C(ABC):

    db = db

# TypeError: Can't instantiate abstract class C with abstract methods db

c = C()

This would be an odd pattern, and easy to avoid, like so:

class C(ABC):

    @property

    def db(self):

        return db

Nevertheless, I'll investigate what it is about Motor's metaprogramming that confuses ABC.
