Comment (by tscrim):

 Actually, I'm thinking we should remove this outright:
 {{{
 sage: DynkinDiagram(['D',4]).an_instance()
 Dynkin diagram of rank 3
 }}}
 I understand the point, but it is strange having it as a method of an
 instance of a Dynkin diagram. I know this is a fault of
 Python/`@staticmethod`, but still, if anything we would likely be better
 served having this as a method attached to the function `DynkinDiagram`.
 We could switch to `samples` as we have for `CartanType`(`Factory`).

 Although switching to C,,3,, is good to me.
