I realized just now that I screwed up this answer, it doesn't make much 
sense as I wrote it above. The correct reason was so that S'Input could be 
used as the constructor routine to an instance of 
Generic_Dispatching_Constructor, and then that instance could be used as 
part of a routine implementing a user-defined S'Class'Input. Sorry about any 
confusion.
