Actually, I think it is very bad practice to make use of compiler internal features like that. Are you absolutely sure ALL compiler implementations (now and in teh future) are working like that?
making use of the returntype as a part of the signature is very dangerous in my opinion. Why not simply (I know, it really sounds simple, but it actually is) use a different name for the new method to differentiate between returntypes?

Really nice puzzle !

but you say …
‘ Now in both cases CatalystCounter is used ‘

Wouldn’t you write :
‘ Now in both cases ComparableCounter is used ‘

Thanks for this brainy moment
