However I could get the > instance of "A" by calling the method 'convert' and passing a ReifiedType. I would assume that the actual ServiceProxyWrapper object passed in actually *is* and instance of A as in "xyz instanceof A". Otherwise it would be a violation of the spec etc. The actual class of the supplied object is none of the consumer's business. There is no need to unwrap IMHO.
