It's my impression -- I've heard it from so many programmers that I respect. The impression may be biased by my own frustrations dealing with bad abstractions (like: 90% of the classes I've seen out there are semantically broken, a.k.a not state machines). (To back that up, there is a python script of mine which I think is rather clean. It has basically a single class in it, which was needed because the API of cmd.Cmd relies on inheritance. I had to spend quite some time to circumvent that insane amount of brokenness. I've put in a few cynic comments out of frustration. If you're interested: https://github.com/jstimpfle/gitadmin/blob/08a2c0b7dd1a8950e... Good times.) Name the use cases where you think inheritance is a good fit.
