A Bidirectional Link is not a (special case of a) Link, it's a group of
two (Unidirectional) Links. In the NML schema [1] there is no direct
inheritance between the two, although both subclass a Network Object
(but so does a Node).

(I would actually like a BidirectionalLink to be a Link, but all attempt
I did failed in logic: things like "isSource" and "isSink" would be
ambiguous in the direction. So I stopped trying for now.)
