What this means is that classes will be usable as a value type, like
in C++. In C++, this causes all sorts of trouble, as a value type and
a reference type are fundamentally different things with different
uses.
There is a precedent in C for T* being legal as the type of a variable or
intermediate value but T not being (for some T): function pointers.
If you forbid the use of the bare Class type (possibly with the exception
of as an alias for meta coding reasons) your concern becomes moot.
