That's not really true, method calls on trait objects are dynamic.

Right, we should instead talk about the syntax, which allows you to call methods using the fully qualified syntax.

Hey @brandonpollack23 and @qwandor, since I plan on sqush-merging this, I've added a bunch of small formatting fixes. |

I would like to add this content — it's great for the course participants if we can cover constructors.
Please move the file to methods/constructors.md instead since constructors are not strictly about structs (they apply to enums too).
Then we just need to fix the small problem pointed out by Andrew and we should be good to go!
