One more experiential point in this thread.  I implemented an Emacs GO
mode recently and (thanks to EIEIO) I was able to transparently support
reading/writing of moves/game-state to/from multiple GO engines, network
protocols, game formats (sgf) and even the Emacs display and user, all
through a single API [1].

I would not have even attempted this without EIEIO, but with EIEIO it
was a pleasure.

Best,
