Yeah, I thought of runtime duck typing when I saw it, which is essentially what an ECS is.
It would be pretty cool to go the next step and be able to find and call methods or discover trait implementations on the type that may not be in the signature. So something like how Go can conditionally type asset an interface to a different interface. I don't know if that's possible in a zero cost way (probably not), but it would be interesting.
