I'm not sure it matters now (I'm about a billion messages behind with little
hope of catching up), but FWIW, I have use cases for extending through
inheritance and haven't had any kind of semantic confusion.  But then again, I
haven't particularly needed to do type checks or isinstance checks, and I
haven't needed to put methods on enums either.
