I would say that if you want an interface you probably don't need the
whole set of functions that Unit/Machine/etc provide. And a smaller
interface means you don't have to create a fake one that has a bunch
of methods you don't actually use.

Something to think about, at least.

I personally like having interfaces, but I'm not sure that all of
Unit/Machine/etc need to be turned into an interface. There are
already a few that we have (like Entity, etc).
