What makes object to be a stream? Belonging to Stream hierarchy? Apparently not.
Its a behavior and protocol.
One of the reasons to make it subclass is to reuse behavior inherited
from Stream.
But if subclass needs to override 90%+ of inherited methods, then it
makes not much sense.
I didn't measured how much methods need to be overridden by
SocketStream, but i suspect it is the case, since sockets are quite
special.
