Indeed, "composition" is the best option given the current situation.
Wise advice. Correct if I'm wrong, but I think that is best exploited
when using '_unknown' and '_property' special methods to
transparently deliver any method or property request directly to the
private dynamic array. This way one don't have to wrap every possible
array method or property and the class can be made agnostic of array
type.

No, I don't. It's a very specific use case.
Thank you.
Happy Hacking!
