He mentions a plug-in API in the second linked post. Enums would be a good solution, but they can't be extended with more cases by a plug-in.
enum Car {
case Red
case Blue
}
extension Car {
func hello() {
print("hello")
}
}
let x = Car.Blue
x.hello()

That's the point. We all know you can add impls or extensions.
