So here are the benefits of inheritance:
• Unlike composition, you can pass the subclass into functions expecting the parent class.
• Unlike interfaces, you can reuse code from the parent class in the child class.
So, here’s when you want to use inheritance: **when you need to instantiate both the parent and child classes and pass them to the same functions.** That’s it. That’s the use case.

Attuned choice by attuned choice, your entire life is a form of self-expression. Ultimately, the act of self-expression isn't really about you.
The Creative Act
Rick Rubin
Seven stages of action: one for goals, three for execution, and three for evaluation
1. Goal (form the goal)
2. Plan (the action)
5. Perceive (the state of the world)
6. Interpret (the perception)
3. Specify (an action sequence)
7. Compare (the outcome with the goal)
4. Perform (the action sequence)
