This code defines a struct with fields named ReadWriteSeeker, ReaderAt, WriterAt, and Closer which are never used. Notably, Blob itself implements the functions required by these interfaces. If Blob was an interface this syntax would mean that whatever implements Blob must have the methods in the listed interfaces, but written as a struct this syntax defines four separate fields in the struct itself. This appears to be a mistake.

To require that a struct
Blob
implements the required interfaces, one can use the "interface guards" pattern like this:
