I suggest going further and removing it from the tutorial altogether. The
inheritance chapter in data definition is sufficient, IMO.
Or maybe just make this page a simple pointer to that one.
I agree the tutorial, partly by virtue of being part of the formal
documentation, has become outdated in quite a few ways. I’m not a fan of
trying to modernize the tutorial within the confines of the formal
documentation though, when the wiki is a much more appropriate medium.
