I don't think this is a bug, python.el just takes a more liberal
interpretation of "defun" that includes class definitions.  See for
example, python-nav-beginning-of-defun-regexp:

    (defvar python-nav-beginning-of-defun-regexp
                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^
      (python-rx line-start (* space) defun (+ space) (group symbol-name))
      "Regexp matching class or function definition.
                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
