You've kind of skipped to an advanced computer science topic -- two parent inheritance.
C++ offers two-parent inheritance, but most modern systems, like Java don't. It's just too messy and complicated. In biological inheritance, nature tosses a coin and various features are selected from each parent randomly. Probably not what one wants in their TW app. I think we probably want to stick with amoeba style inheritance, and assume only one parent at a time.
