Subject: Ruby class hierarchy confusion

I'm somewhat confused about the Ruby object hierarchy.

Every class that I define is an instance of the class Class, and Class
has the hierarchy Class < Module < Object < BasicObject.

If I define a class A, then A has the hierarchy A < Object <
BasicObject.

But if A is an instance of the class Class, should the superclass of A
not be Module, like in the first hierarchy above? A's class is Class, so
it would make sense to me that it should follow the top one!!
