But the example calls render on `illo`, which is the parent. So at some point the "double link" between illo and the child was created, which is a side-effect, no?

Presumably updateGraph() and even render() can both tidy up linkages and anything else that needs updating. The shape constructor might well have a side-effect though, I don't know. Hey I hear your point, this API is a little bit different. Maybe since it's early your feedback is fully justified. Just from my perspective it didn't strike me as "very strange", only perhaps a little bit. I don't think you're wrong, it's just a matter of degree... which is subjective anyway, so take this as lukewarm agreement with you. :)
