Trying to throw an exception if someone starts using checks I haven't
gotten to implementing yet.

Better question is why attr would not have a type :S
Let me leave it be for now, I'll revisit when exercising this code 
in the future.

I hope we can avoid over-focusing on the python tools :P
I'm no python expert and the code would use a lot of refactoring.
