Feature #8449: Array#ary_plus always returns an array

Even when Array is subclassified, + operator keeps on returning an Array.

Don't know if it is a bug or intentional, but it has surprised me for sure.

I paste some code for demonstrational purposes:
  

 #!/usr/bin/env ruby
 #ary_plus.rb
 
 # Shows an unexpected behavior to me
 # when adding Array subclasess.
 
 class Subarray < Array; end
 
 a = Subarray.new
 b = Subarray.new
 
 result = a + b
 # I was expecting to have a Subarray back
 
 unless result.is_a? Subarray
 puts "result is not a [Subarray]"
 end
 
 puts "result variable is a [#{result.class.name}]"
 
=end
