equal and cmp and OnHash among tuples of the same type must be
supported if all the types they contain support those
operations. If you remove that behaviour tuples become much
less useful.
Did you really mean "Tuples of the same type"? Because I don't
think that was bein argued, and I agree with the conclusion.
What's worth discussing is the opposite, so if it's a good idea
to allow other operations among tuples if their types support
those operations.

What other operations are you thinking about? Maybe a generic
opDispatch?
