Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3647:
-------------------------------------------
bq. Why isn't the discard syntax as simple as [...]
I like it!
bq. I assume BTW that braces ("[") are signifying a position in an ordered
list, and Brackets ("{") are signifying a value (or label) and not a position
That's reasonable, but then you still have the problem of Maps that don't
really fit either of those. And like I said, a Set feels more like a
Map-without-values to me, than like a List-without-indexes.
