This is not inheritance, careful about what you say here since it is totally misleading. while embedding structs is useful in a lot of cases, it might yield unexpected results if you expect embedding to work "more like inheritance". ex type A struct{} func (a *A)GetSelf()*A{return a} type B struct{ A } b:=&B{A{}} b.GetSelf() returns type A , not type B It gets even more confusing when you start embedding interfaces in structs.
