In this scenario, I don't see a benefit other than that I don't need to use satisfies? which is no problem at all in my case (it's only called once, so I don't care about its performance). And default impls have the negative side effect that they make debugging harder. E.g., now if some code calls (proto-method foo) where foo intentionally doesn't support the protocol I get an error. With a default impl it won't fail and either no errors pop up or they pop up at other places. Of course, default impls could throw IllegalStateExceptions with proper messages but IMHO the usual protocol dispatch "no IFoo method impl for class Bar" error is good enough.
