I found this in E06:

Well... I guess E06 is unmaintained, but currently has the best
explanation of junctions I can find, so I offer the attached patch in
the hope that the logic error does not propagate.

But you
the just an array paradigm which breaks the weld?
@a = 1..*;
@a[-1] = 9; # @a = (9) now ?
That's just my thoughts from what I understand and sorry if introducing
welding into the analogy causes bits of molten metal to go flying
around ;-)

In order not do do some strange magic could you jsut do:

That seems clear and non magical to me.

I think 'subset' might be a nicer colour for this bikeshed. For an
extra three characters you lose the confusion with to set, and it
highlights the fact that you're (usually) declaring a *constrained*
subset of the original type.

usage of type1^type2 ?
Even if we use ^ as a sigil why would it get confused on that? I
don't think type1 ^type2 could have any realy meaning so it should be
easy for the parser to know the difference.

What about something like:
c\
Then you get
sub sametype (c\T $x, c\T $y) {...}
Not exactly pretty though. c\T
Actualy i think ^ might be my favorite so far.
sub sametype (^T $x, ^T $y) {...}

I have a suggestion/proposal/whatever.
I am just starting to get a grasp of uses for pairs and where they are
handy. Working on string.trans some showed that it would be useful to have
the function accept a list of pairs. That was working until the fix for
magical pairs went through and now the
the magical ness of pairs before.

of it and it doesn't add any data that wasn't there before. I
don't think it should ever lean towards (b) but them I bet someone else will
have an equaly good use of that. ;) So in the end I think some way of
chooseing would be good, with one option picked as standard.

for that. That would give us the ability to give the
variable a different name than the parameter. I like.
sub seek (:x($horizontal),:y($vertical))
On the other hand, it's now unclear whether you can call that as
seek(1,2).
Needs to be allowed somehow.
