In particular, check out the section in the manual about "singleton"s;
where there exists only one instance of a concrete type. I.e.

type MyType end
const singleton = MyType()
const singleton2 = MyType()
singletone === singleton2 # == true

Not exactly sure how that plays into the difference between use a concrete
vs. abstract, but just a data point.
