"...aren't we supposed to be acolytes of Agile, and iterative
improvements?"
Yes.  And I didn't mean to imply that a total refactoring of
associations was an absolute condition of "success" or that a "just
refactorings" effort does not have merit.

Roughly, I'm in complete agreement with Adam's original post:
Refactoring the associations code is needed, and the most needy areas
are the most fundamental (inheritance hierarchy, module-versus-
subclass composition, namespaces, etc.)..  But I raise the flag that
this whole area is due for a major structural refactoring, not just
HOT/HMT.  And, despite the theory, that should have implications for
anybody undertaking a refactoring of HOT/HMT.
