//  preserving dynamic type safety by throwing an exception during a
//  a bad cast. 
// The object & array element index operators (operators [std::string]
//  and [size_t]) provide convenient, quick access to child elements.
//  They are a logical extension of the cast operators. These child
//  element accesses can be chained together, allowing the following
