Once again, it's absolutely the same approach which I showed

The *only* thing new about David’s proposal (and intentionally so) is
that the symbol `with` is being reused. So there shouldn’t be any
surprise that it looks like many things that we have seen already.
I'd accept it if it hadn't old semantics. Moreover, it's used in some
languages (in e.g. hypothetical lang from "Essentials of computer
programs" book, IIRC).
I'd better reuse it for mixins while inheriting as shown in previous letter.
“Once again” also sounds impolite, but maybe that’s just me.
I polite with everyone, though I don't need permissions to ask question.
If you have found something rough in my "tone", you may always ignore
it. And "once again", -- because it's really "once again", since I wrote
about in the previous letter ;)
