Comment:
Django is using the initialisation function on a class to create instances
of that class. That's what `__init__` is for. You can easily override it,
but you have to be able to accept the way a Model class is called, which
means accepting things matching the current signature. That's true
whenever you subclass something: if you pass it to something that expects
the parent, you have to match the parent's initialisation interface.
