Check.

Yes, I do agree from some of your other posts (especially the one about
"covariant" stuff) that you do understand the semantics.

Nope. Merely that in this particular note you only mentioned the
syntax aspects as being all there is. This isn't (strictly speaking)
all there is and so was in error. But, as you say you were just
avoiding the details.
While it is true that early in the "Real OO" thread I thought you were
a simple troller (for some very good reasons which we need not bring
up) I definitely changed my mind about this. In fact, I have come to
see you as clearly contributing worth while stuff to the net. One of
the few...
