I hope I will be excused for dragging in the indecency, but it might be
worth looking at the concepts COBOL used to mitigate its verbosity, (e.g.
types defined in a structure that get inherited by lower levels, unless
specifically over-ridden).
"Those who will not learn from history are bound to repeat it", and a lot
of o-o concepts give me an unpleasant sense of deja vu.
