[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #42735] subclass inheritence: symbol ops (e.g., plus, mtimes) do not respect superiorto

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #42735 (project octave):

This page
(https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_oop/object-precedence-in-expressions-using-operators.html)
suggests that if two user-defined classes are completely unrelated, the
left-hand object's method is used (which is what Octave implements today).

So the logic that is lacking here is relationships between class inheritance
(both old and new style OO), old-style superiorto/inferiorto relationships,
and new-style InferiorClasses relationships.
