No, not at all. In that case, the final item, whether a VCX or an SCX, is

essentially a concrete instance of its superclass. This is different than a

class which has only one subclass, but whose subclass is used in many ways. In

this case, the intermediate level can probably be eliminated with only minor

re-design. Or, for those who use SCX forms, if the superclass of the SCX is used

only for that SCX, then it probably can be eliminated, too, as any class-level

customizations can be simply added to the SCX.
