That's how it goes.

A Scala dev will look at the Scala type signature and shrug.

A C# dev will look at the C# type signature and shrug.

As usual, unfamiliar things are difficult and familiar things are easy.

Yeah, and not knowing Scala myself, I can't say that the OP didn't purposely use a contrived example. That said, I still don't think a class definition which is little more than a bunch of interfaces being implemented is confusing to anyone who got through chapter 4 of "Learn C# in 21 days".
