Thoughts on whether this is an improvement? I'm not convinced for this particular exercise. Basically, if you call
initwith some strange side lengths, do you want an error ornull?I'll did this to see what it'd look like as
null, but I'm leaning towards closing this PR. We can reopen it if we feel it's worth considering.
