The destructor. Given what your code did, there was no need
for all the infrastructure he put in place. There was certainly
no need for adjust or finalize, and the effect of initialize was
easily handled without deriving from controlled.
Furthermore, since none of the C++ members were virtual,
there was no need for a tagged type in this situation.
He was, I believe, presenting a scaffolding for more situations
where more complex resource management was necessary. It
certainly wasn't in this situation.
And as you can see, the verboseness was more a matter of
idiom than necessity.
