> What is your evaluation of the proposal?
+1.  I liked the idea of this protocol when Swift was first announced but it 
has become clear that it isn't a good fit for the language.

Yes.

Very much so.

I have not used other languages with a protocol like this but I have used other 
languages with various kinds of "truthiness".  This turns out to be a feature 
that is convenient most of the time but subtly problematic in ways that are 
confusing and troublesome.  I was hopeful that Swift's more structured approach 
using a protocol might work out better but it didn't.

A quick read.
