Description
This is a good project, and I think that using R6 classes rather than S4 classes would enhance it from perspective of computational speed and future development.
NOTE: This is a suggestion rather than an issue.

Research direction
The issue proposes replacing the project's S4 classes with R6 classes, but it names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing S4 class definitions and reviewing how they are used; completion would require an agreed migration scope and evidence that the change improves computational speed or future development.
