No extension of interfaces in Ada, eh? https://www.adacore.com/gems/gem-48 type Animal is interface; type Animal_Extension_1 is interface and Animal; Or are we now claiming that Ada's =E2=80=A2extension=E2=80=A2 is not =E2=80= =A2inheritance=E2=80=A2? (But ironically that Ada83's subtyping is inherit= ance, as per a prior recent thread's debate.)
