Somehow I doubt C++'s built-in object system will allow you to create classes (yes, classes, not objects) and/or alter their vtables at runtime. (I know, vtables are an implementation detail. You still get the idea.)
Not anymore so than the C one - it's just as static.
The point is that building blocks that you get from C++ are higher-level even so - classes, operator overloading, template metaprogramming etc - which should make it possible to implement something like Cello with a lot less effort (and hacks).
