A Trait is not part of the Type system, it's not type-hintable, it's not mockable, it's harder to do code review (a Trait was modified, what gets impacted?). A trait is just an "easy" way to copy/paste code while hiding away the code that is being copy/pasted. To be honest here, a Trait is something that I wouldn't miss if it was deprecated, although I know that's just wishful thinking. An interface default implementation on the other hand is extremely powerful and clear. If you're not happy with the default implementation, just write your own, otherwise less code to write and a better type system at the end. -- Marco Deleu
