+If the `#[component(...)]` attribute is omitted, the given component will be
+stored in a `DenseVecStorage` by default. But for this example, we are
+explicitly asking for these components to be kept in a `VecStorage` instead (see
+the later [storages chapter][sc] for more details). But before we move on, we
