Programmers should not comment out code as it bloats programs and reduces readability.
Unused code should be deleted and can be retrieved from source control history if required.

It's confusing to have a class member with the same name (case differences aside) as its enclosing class. This is particularly so when you consider the common practice of naming a class instance for the class itself.
Best practice dictates that any field or member with the same name as the enclosing class be renamed to be more descriptive of the particular aspect of the class it represents or holds.
Noncompliant Code Example
class Foo: foo = '' def getFoo(self): ... foo = Foo() foo.getFoo() # what does this return?
Compliant Solution
class Foo: name = '' def getName(self): ... foo = Foo() foo.getName()

Looking at the set of methods and fields in a class
and finding two that differ only by capitalization is confusing to users of the
class.
This situation may simply indicate poor naming. Method names should be action-oriented, and thus contain a verb, which is unlikely in the case where both a method and a field have the same name (with or without capitalization differences). However, renaming a public method could be disruptive to callers. Therefore renaming the member is the recommended action.
Noncompliant Code Example
class SomeClass: lookUp = false def lookup(): # Non-compliant; method name differs from field name only by capitalization pass
Compliant Solution
class SomeClass: lookUp = false def getLookUp(): pass
