If that is called renaming.

Note, that there are three independent concepts intermixed in Ada's
renaming:

1. Alias names
2. Temporal objects
3. Delegation

If Slice is a proxy object to Line delegating its operations to Line, then
why is it called renaming? Why is it String? (in fact it is some anonymous
thing from String'Class)
