I touched on this.  ​Since Perl is Duck-typed not strongly-typed, the Perl5
built-in (lame) OO system doesn't (need to) do "has-a" as OO, we just use
​scalar references for has-a composition, not embedded has-a. It just works.

[ Some of the bolt-on OO systems may support typed has-a composition, but
I'm not a Moose lodge member so can't say offhand. ]
