The plurality of bone attachment features may be implemented on a proximal end 902 and/or a distal end 904. In the illustrated embodiment, the plurality of bone attachment features are implemented in a plurality of sets of distal bone attachment features 952a,b. The plurality of sets of bone attachment features are each configured to receive a set of distal guide pins 930. The plurality of sets of bone attachment features enable a surgeon to decide intraoperatively which bone attachment features to deploy guide pins into. Alternatively, or in addition, a surgeon may choose to deploy guide pins into multiple bone attachment features of the plurality of sets of bone attachment features.
