With strategy you can extend the single dimensionality of single inheritance but you cannot acquire new behavior. Or better it is even more cumbersome if you use it to make it acquire new things. Or different said: If there is something like a design pattern that is used really often it could be a good idea if the language would support this out of the box, right? Somewhere in between is the reason why I was asking :) Norbert
