 - A QObject class, a derived class, a widget class and a gadget need no macro. The base class names the class for you.
 - Every open row has a reason. The largest: namespaces, `BINDABLE`, invokable constructors, plugin metadata and the `qmltyperegistrar` input.

 A row names a moc construct, its spelling in moc and in reflect-moc, a verdict and a test. A script run by ctest fails on a blank cell, an unknown verdict or a missing test file. It also fails on a "same" row without a test.
 
-In 24 of the 29 "same" rows there is a twin. One executable holds the class written for real moc in one header and for reflect-moc in another. The test compares the two meta-objects row for row: names, signatures, parameter names, access, flags, revisions, properties, enums and class info. Then it runs both. It calls methods by name, round-trips properties, connects signals and casts with `qobject_cast`.

 The other 5 are class templates, the class-name override, `qobject_cast` and two compile-time errors. I broke a twin on purpose once, by adding a property to the moc side only. The comparison failed. Without that check a comparison that always passes would look the same as one that works.
