No.. and that is the problem. The difference is very much a conceptual
thing so it's very important that it be protected. By allowing the
assertion of stub calls the usage of stub and mock is diluted.
Maybe you can help us understand why someone want to be able to assert stub
calls and your view on why this was a good feature to add? Isn't that what
a mock is for?
