Wait, you say, in Go you can embed a struct with default method implementations to "inherit" them in your composed struct... sure, except any methods called by those methods are early-bound in the original struct, completely ignoring your wrapper, so the best you can do is "not implemented" rather than actually implement something. It is at least a way to prevent semver-major breakage, which the gRPC generator uses, but that's about as far as it gets you.
