I presume it was named ThreadContextMap3 so there could be a ThreadContextMap4 since 3 extends 2 and 2 extends the first one. Frankly, I dislike this practice very, very much. Instead, each interface should be named as you suggest and NOT extend the prior interface. Instead, the implementation should declare that it implements each of these.
