Just curios, what’s the reasoning behind not having #initialize in Object? 
Initialization isn’t a core concept Object should support?

I am asking because in SOM, Object indeed does not have #initialize, and well, 
I find that a little annoying.
Because often enough I need to add a #new method that sends #initialize, but 
since it is not available implicitly everywhere, the system is rather 
inconsistent in that regard. Different classes end up using slightly different 
approaches to initialization, which is confusing.

Best regards
Stefan
