One thing that is convenient when working with Traits, is that there already are established coding conventions. The problem when coding with metaclasses is that it is easy to prduce very beautiful code that is hard to read for the newcomer (I have fallen in that trap). Traits are nothing more but a metaclass, they also have this problem. But if they become wildy used this problem goes away.
