Polymorphic objects on the stack?

Question

In Why is there no base class in C++?, I quoted Stroustrup on why a common Object class for all classes is problematic in c++. In that quote there is the statement:

Answer 1

Polymorphism without heap allocation is not only possible but also relevant and useful in some real life cases.

_{This is quite an old question with already many good answers. Most answers indicate, correctly of course, that Polymorphism can be achieved without heap allocation. Some answers try to explain that in most relevant usages Polymorphism needs heap allocation. However, an example of a viable usage of Polymorphism without heap allocation seems to be required (i.e. not just purely syntax examples showing it to be merely possible).}

Here is a simple Strategy-Pattern example using Polymorphism without heap allocation:

Strategies Hierarchy

class StrategyBase {
public:
    virtual ~StrategyBase() {}
    virtual void doSomething() const = 0;
};

class Strategy1 : public StrategyBase {
public:
    void doSomething() const override { std::cout << "Strategy1" << std::endl; }
};

class Strategy2 : public StrategyBase {
public:
    void doSomething() const override { std::cout << "Strategy2" << std::endl; }
};

A non-polymorphic type, holding inner polymorphic strategy

class A {
    const StrategyBase* strategy;
public:
    // just for the example, could be implemented in other ways
    const static Strategy1 Strategy_1;
    const static Strategy2 Strategy_2;

    A(const StrategyBase& s): strategy(&s) {}
    void doSomething() const { strategy->doSomething(); }
};

const Strategy1 A::Strategy_1 {};
const Strategy2 A::Strategy_2 {};

Usage Example

int main() {    
  // vector of non-polymorphic types, holding inner polymorphic strategy
  std::vector vec { A::Strategy_1, A::Strategy_2 };

  // may also add strategy created on stack 
  // using unnamed struct just for the example
  struct : StrategyBase {
    void doSomething() const override {
      std::cout << "Strategy3" << std::endl;
    }
  } strategy3;

  vec.push_back(strategy3);

  for(auto a: vec) {
    a.doSomething();
  }
}

Output:

Strategy1
Strategy2
Strategy3
