An override of #doesNotUnderstand: *is* (an instance of) the problem.
What part of "you may think you know what to forward now, but just
wait a couple of months or install an additional package and there
will be *more* selectors you needed to think about but didn't" is
hard to understand?
Proxies
I don’t understand. Wouldn’t an override of #'doesNotUnderstand:’ solve this
problem? The proxies I’ve seen subclass from nil or ProtoObject and forward
almost everything to the target. It’s really very easy.

An object should be a Proxy or Stub only with reference to a specific
protocol, which should be kept narrow.
Being a Proxy is a form of coupling. Proxying a wide
interface creates maintenance problems:
Squeak 5.3 : Object selectors size => 485
Pharo 9.0 : Object selectors size => 435
