Well I am not professional programmer so I dont argue with your extended definition of encapsulation

However let's assume that estabilishing a link to an external set of functions is also Encapsulation
What I did not agree was your claim " its own methods "
Nope in component based engines there are generic methods only

Only non component based engines supply methods which are custom made for the category (class) of entities they refer to.
