In Generics.Defaults manual interfaces are easier to maintain. Manual interfaces are more solid construction. They are more resistant for improper use than regular ARC interfaces. You did not specify any technical argument to discrediting manual interfaces implementation in Generics.Defaults. Just a feeling :P. Your only technical argument has been overthrown. -- Best regards, Maciej Izak
