Agreed, if you remember my first post, broken encapsulation was just 
taken as an example of these doubts people (non-AO guys, students) 
raise repeatedly.
This said, I personally agree with your view that concerns are 
encapsulated, and that classes do not matter as such then. And I also 
think that the 'symmetrical' composition of concerns is a good way to 
go.
