Yeah, definitely a different beast. I've done things with what's basically dynamic scope trickery before now, though it didn't look exactly like hooks.

I still want traits because I've got very fond of doing class-with-read-only-members type stuff and being able to compose functionality together works really nicely in that regard

(nonetheless, I very much appreciate your efforts on elucidating hooks - I think most of the reason I'm replying this confidently is as combination of your articles and the reference docs :)
