I get the point that it is supposed to be lazy. But why are
these basic cases not implemented? I shouldn't have to go
write a wrapper for something as simple as casting this type
to the original type. This is one of the things that one
expects the standard library to do for you.
There's no need to write any wrappers. Just tack `.array` to
the end of your pipeline, and you're good to go.

Thank you. I didn't know that there was such a property `.array`.
