I think others could explain the technical reasons, which sincerely I don't care at all. Conceptually I guess the designer :) wanted to have a closure with some kind of dummy object to represent the "Je pense donc je suis" (ego cogito, ergo sum), similarly, ProtoObject knows that it doesn't understand, then it doesn't understand... but that's only a cartesian-platonic route to knowledge representation, if you want to expand the system at this level, you may start modeling interesting knowledge acquisition and cognitive processes, only to finally be accused of not making money for your boss :)

I don't understand why it does not understand #doesNotUnderstand:... shouldn't ProtoObject understand #doesNotUnderstand:??? (it is not a joke, I'm��serious)��

Answering myself, thanks to Esteban:

It hangs because It does not understand #initialize, so It throws a DNU, and it also does not understand #doesNotUnderstand:
