Difficult to say given the meaningless names you provided. Just in case, you 
can still split things nicely in 2 classes and still get Dependent to be the 
same thing than Obj : by inheritance. It is a common way to extend one class's 
features.

class Obj
class Dependent(Obj)

But do it only if Dependent **is** actually an Obj.
If Dependent not an Obj but part of an Obj, then your original implementation 
is probably the way to go.
