But what happens if the classes do not have the same argument expectations,
such as:

class Foo

  include NameBuilder

  def initialize(arg1)
    ...
  end

end

class Bar

  include NameBuilder

  def initialize(arg1, arg2, arg3)
    ...
  end

end

...

In this case, "described_class.new(nil, nil)" is not going to work out very
well.
