True.  Nevertheless, the two kinds of method are treated quite
differently by Parrot, both when being defined and when being called.
That is why it is awkward not to have concise names for both kinds.

We have vtable functions, subs, methods, and multis. A multi is neither a sub nor a method nor a vtable function, though it may substitute for any of them.
