// building it into the AST itself makes it required for future Node
// implementations and very easy to do.

// Note that this isn't a true implementation of the visitor pattern, which
// generally requires proper type dispatch on the function. However,
// implementing this basic visitor pattern style is still very useful even
// if you have to type switch.
