The syntactic interface is the same.
Encapsulation of complexity is a problem if it is not obvious to the
programmer. I am not sure it can even be called such if the semantics is
different.
That would be the semantic interface, which makes the idea twice as bad.

I tend to agree, but I think that the two points are mutually exclusive.
