Now you're just being silly. A rectangle is a rectangle because it
spent eight years in rectangle college whereas the square barely
passed high school geometry ... ;-)
But seriously, folks, this basically boils down to a design
decision. But to be fair, in Cocoa, a square is actually a rectangle
with equal length and width:
NSRect * rect = NSMakeRect(0, 0, 20, 10);
NSRect * square = NSMakeRect(0, 0, 10, 10);
Now THAT'S pedantic.

A rectangle is a square since it has four edges
A square is not a rectangle since it can't have different lengthed
edges
