+      # Allow a Mash to properly respond to everything
+      #
+      # By default, Mashes only say they respond to methods for keys that exist
+      # in their key set or any of the affix methods (e.g. setter, underbang,
+      # etc.). This causes issues when you try to use them within a
+      # SimpleDelegator or bind to a method for a key that is unset.
+      #
+      # This extension allows a Mash to properly respond to `respond_to?` and
+      # `method` for keys that have not yet been set. This enables full
+      # compatibility with SimpleDelegator and thunk-oriented programming.
+      #
+      # There is a trade-off with this extension: it will run slower than a
+      # regular Mash; insertions and initializations with keys run approximately
+      # 20% slower and cost approximately 19KB of memory per class that you
+      # make permissive.
