But there's no restrictive type hierarchy that causes unnecessary 
coupling. Also, compared to virtual functions, there's no 
overhead from the vtable lookup. Shape doesn't need to search for 
the correct member function pointer, it already has it.

It's either that, or else I've misunderstood how virtual 
functions work.
