Description
A pattern used a bit in the wild is the delegation of arguments to another method:
def perform(*args)
# log things, activate gear
do_perform(*args)
end
def do_perform(key, value, description)
....
Considering that add typing info to do_perform is straightforward, how could I hint in rbs that perform has the same signature? If not, does it make sense to have such a feature?

Done means agreeing on whether signature inheritance belongs in RBS and documenting and testing the chosen syntax.
