This seems good at first blush:
"handles" means "when I'm asked to do this, it is taken care of by this
other"
That seems like a good disambiguation marker, too:
class Trog does Tree does Dog {...}
# error: conflicting 'bark' methods
class Trog
is PersistentObject
handles �meta dispatch SERIALIZE�
does Tree
handles �bark�
does Dog
{...}
