The types with \*'s are the ones we will be focusing on, as they are in
some sense "fundamental". All the others can be understood by analogy to the others:

* Vec and all other owning pointers and collections follow the same logic as Box
* Cell and all other interior mutability types follow the same logic as UnsafeCell
* `*const` follows the logic of `&T`
* `*mut` follows the logic of `&mut T` (or `UnsafeCell<T>`)
* `Vec<T>` and all other owning pointers and collections follow the same logic as `Box<T>`
* `Cell<T>` and all other interior mutability types follow the same logic as `UnsafeCell<T>`
* `*const T` follows the logic of `&T`
* `*mut T` follows the logic of `&mut T` (or `UnsafeCell<T>`)
