1. I start thinking you are on drugs. :o)

2. As Jonathan points out,  what is the method .remove() supposed to do? Start 
WarCraft and reformat the hard disk?

3. Service != interface  -=-=>  The Service carries with it a lot more than 
the Java interface, incl. the semantics, meta information, documentation, and

You can't call yourself a proponent of re-use... Especially since re-use is 
also a restriction, and you seem to take everything to the extreme edge, such 
restriction can't be good, so don't use it. Make your own bolts to fit your
