D6 class or instance?

Isn't it better design if D6 is an instance of Die rather than being a sub-class of Die?

Since it is a sub-class, an instance of D6 is an instance of Die .. just a specialized one.

The advantage of a D6 is you don't have to specify the sides when you create one — they always have 6!
