Rust reference is a bit confusing here, because it does not explicitly mention trait objects.

See an example of confusion here https://users.rust-lang.org/t/confusion-about-impls-without-for/3379/2 :)

It is possible to define an implementation without referring to a trait. The
methods in such an implementation can only be used as direct calls on the
values of the type that the implementation targets. In such an implementation,
the trait type and `for` after `impl` are omitted. Such implementations are
limited to nominal types (enums, structs), and the implementation must appear
in the same crate as the `self` type:
