Object Object

Seeing ValueObject, ParameterObject, ResultObject, ArgumentObject I had to think: Isn't this all the same? Just reflecting language entities?

A quick search for Object reveals (http:wiki?search=Object):

• ActiveObject
• ArgumentObject
• CommandObject
• CompoundObjects
• ConstructorObject
• ContextObject
• CurriedObject
• DataAccessObject
• DataTransferObject
• DateAndValueObject
• DefaultObject
• DeferredExceptionObject
• DumbDataObject
• DummyObject
• FakeObject
• FunctionCallObject
• FunctionObject
• FunctorObject
• FutureObjects
• GenericFunctionObject
• ImmutableObject
• ImmutableValueObject
• MethodObject
• MockObject
• MutableValueObject
• NullObject
• ParameterObject
• QueryObject
• ResultObject
• StateObject
• StreamObject
• SynchronizationObject
• TheNilObject
• ThrowawayObject
• TransactionClosureObject
• TransferObject
• TypeObject
• UndefinedObject
• ValueObject

(there are more, but these fall into the category I mean).

Obviously there is quite some redundancy here (in the pages as well as in the objects themselves).

What about ObjectsAsObjects?
