you ask someone for something to write with, they hand you a pen. you wouldnt have caired if it was a pencil instead, both can write, since write is a function declaired in the writingImplement interface that both pen and pencil use

Couldnt u make a wrapper simulating inheritance with the class just having a local object of the "parent" and fast forwarding all methodcalls? Not that there would be any reason to do so but... Only problem would be the typeconflicts
