Reading Built-in Constants one can see that for example False is a built-in constant.

It is possible to retrieve it using:

>>> print(getattr(__builtins__, "False"))
False

But this fails:

>>> print(__builtins__.False)
File "<stdin>", line 1
    print(__builtins__.False)
                       ^^^^^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I assume this fails because the word “False” (without quotes) gets recognized by the interpreter as the keyword / constant it refers to and so no attribute lookup takes place?
The documentation says about getattr:

Return the value of the named attribute of object. name must be a string. If the string is the name of one of the object’s attributes, the result is the value of that attribute. For example, getattr(x, ‘foobar’) is equivalent to x.foobar.

But for a reserved keyword (?) this does not hold?
