Moreover, a problem with using the "factory method approach" is that

If you have a particular need to be concerned about performance (as
you might especially in a resource-constrained environment), it is
generally a Good Thing to avoid autorelease and instead use alloc/
release directly.
There's no reason why it can't be named "create..." and return a
retained object, if that's what's needed in any given situation.
Perhaps I shouldn't have used the expression "factory method", since I
didn't mean it had to be done exactly the way a frameworks factory
method might.
