Unfortunately, in some languages, inheritance of abstract classes is the only way to get the equivalent of interfaces.

That said, yeah, the less class inheritance, the better. Ideally, work in a language where interfaces can include default implementations.

Totally, no problem with default implementations as long as they are generic. Java finally supports this, as well as Rust and others.
