This had been in S03, and was removed since then. You can safely ignore it.

This leads me to another question - afaict we also have .arity on the
code object, but shouldn't that be method on the .signature instead? Do
we have any methods in Code that are not related to the signature?

If everything does Pattern, I see no good reason to have a role at all -
just stuff the thing into Object.

Ah, that answers my previous question already ;-)

The modified string. (It doesn't do in-place substitution by default).
