It's sort of mitigated if you have no way to add/subtract two points, only a point and a vector, because that kind of forces you to always use your vector class for offsets, otherwise you can't do much with them. However, you do still end up needing things like "PointAtOffsetFromOrigin(const vector&)" that basically just convert a vector directly to a point, so there is still the possibility for confusion. PK
