With all due respect, what is proposed here is imho completely unnecessary
and needlessly complicates Swift further. 

- in Object oriented development, subclassing should be encouraged, not limited.
 if one desires a class not to be subclassed simply add the modifier “final”

Using “final” (as in Java or C++) or “sealed” (as in C#) is imho the best way 
to do it.

No !

This is a subjective domain. can’t answer that.  Anyway, it’s against the basic 
principles of OOD/OOP

I’ve read the proposal...


My opinion is based upon years of experience with OOP languages like Smalltalk, 
Java, Delphi Pascal, Objective C and C++ 

Kind Regards, now from speyer.de.
