This kind of sells the reason not to wrap things behind an object interface, doesn't it?

    for fan in c.query("SELECT * FROM Win32_Fan"):
        if fan.wmi_property("ActiveCooling").value is True:
            print(f"Fan `{fan.wmi_property('Name').value}` is running at {fan.wmi_property('DesiredSpeed').value} RPM")

vs "SELECT Name, DesiredSpeed from Win32_Fan where ActiveCooling"

Obviously, this doesn't matter when you have 5 fans, but in general, you want to push your restrictions as deeply into the query as possible from an optimization standpoint.
