Imagine you are coding a server which loads objects contained in a .dso
file based upon demands of its clients.. the server can not to know what
kind of object it needs *after* the client has asked for a particular
service.. How to avoid here dynamic binding?

But I agree that a golden rule must be "avoid dynamic binding as much as
possible and templatized as much as you can".
