I am quoting the above document:
A key advantage of uniform type identifiers over other type
identification methods is that they are declared in a conformance
hierarchy. A conformance hierarchy is analogous to a class hierarchy
in object-oriented programming. Instead of “type A conforms to
type B,” you can also think of this as “all instances of type A
are also instances of type B.”
This is indeed the most logical way to handle file types. Would be nice as
a public standard, but would require this to be followed, which is another
affair (what I do not enjoy with the Windows way, is the too much frequent
clashes with file extensions, and as soon as a clash is there, this make
the given file extension mostly unusable).
