Not in this case; we are adding a Number to a Time (or a class derived from 
Time) and should be returning the same class as self (that is, Time+number => 
Time, MyTime+number => MyTime). There's really no excuse here not to use 
self.class.new .

The discussion that you referred to was what to return with two Array classes 
added together; that's not at all the same thing.

Smalltalk handles some of these problems by using "species" in some (but not 
all) cases (which defaults to "self class"); however, with Ruby's mixins I 
don't think this is necessary (the major use of species is in Collection 
subclasses; Ruby mixes in Enumerable instead).
