I would do the following: ``` for(final Step<?,?> step : this.getSteps()) { if(step instanceof AutoCloseable) step.close(); } ``` Next, I would have `TraversalParent` extend `AutoCloseable` with its default `close()` method being: ``` for(final Traversal.Admin<?,?> traversal : this.getLocalChildren()) { traversal.close() } for(final Traversal.Admin<?,? traversal: this.getGlobalChildren()) { traversal.close(); } ```
