After almost 20 years, I seem to be learning a lot of Oberon thinking this week.

I read in the Language Reference for Component Pascal that procedure
calls and super calls are considered obsolete.

What is the replacement? I was looking at HostPackedFiles and noticed
that there are not any, there are type bound methods and the
"Directory" construct. Is that the currently recommended practice?
What is the motivation? Since it gets in the way of some clever thing
I am considering, I assume it is a safety measure.
