Smalltalk traits don't have state, for example. Now it's true that I used the Smalltalk traits paper to explain why we needed roles in Perl 6, but I'd already had them in mind way before I read the paper. At best, it's a case of simultaneous discovery. Roles didn’t come from Smalltalk. Smalltalk traits don’t have state, for example.

I very much like this pragmatic approach of adopting the right strategy for the problem. OO has design strategies both built in and as part of its surrounding culture. It was those strategies and techniques which I was missing while up to my elbows in arbitrarily referencing and dereferencing variables for no very apparent reason...
