I notice that there is a "satisfies?" method to determine if something
satisfies a protocol. Also, I see that "extend-protocol" doesn't
actually let one create a protocol which is an extension of another
protocol. Rather, "extend-protocol" really means "implements", in the
Java sense.

When I first learned about this, I found the naming a little confusing
and/or misleading. In my humble opinion, based on my experience, I
would like to propose renaming "extend-protocol" to "satisfy-
protocol", to make the purpose of the "extend-protocol" method clearer
and more consistent with the "satisfies?" method.

Cheers,
Travis
