Wow, I wish to understand the internal details of Python implementation that makes it behave in such a way :)

I don't. I have no interest in trying to assign a value to something that's built-in and not meant to be written to. Like who fucking cares that the boolean constants are actually weird little structure that sometimes let you mess with them and other times your edits are ignored? Maybe this is helpful for writing an entry for an obfuscated code challenge but I'm not doing weird shit like that with the code I expect to work between various Python versions and implementations, especially when I'm getting paid to do it.
