what you say wrapper function do you mean the ref counting functions when you
pass around the interface?
I guess for ref counting you're supposed to cast the class to the interface
(which is an expensive runtime lookup) and then pass that thing around? That
seems like a crazy way to get ref counting plus you need to cast the interface
back to the class if you want to call other methods? I still don't get this
pattern. ARC should be handled by the compiler and be on the class itself, not
some additional object you need to create and then store.
