You should have got that's even not what i was talking about.
Basic summary of the conversation:

- you: hello what do you thing about my helpers functions?
- others: nothing, we won't add this because streams are deprecated. Maybe they'll come back one day if someone comes with a kind of "rangified" stream solution.
- you: how can I "rangify" a stream ?
- me: hello, you can add the ranges primitives.
- you: yes but it doesn't work for my particular case.
- me: (sigh) I know, I was talking about how streams can be rangified in a general way.

I think that the misunderstanding happens after 'others' intervention: 'other' did not suggested that your helper functions can be made in the "Range" fashion.

The problem is, that you are concerned with who said what instead of addressing the problem.

The point is, streams can contain mixed data types. Any adopted solution should address this, and you haven't presented one.

I believe something like this could work:

I don't care about your problem, adding some type-specific readers & writers is quite straight forward and the solution you proposed initially is Ok.

But...at a particular point you asked how Streams can be rangified. That was the only reason why i posted here. Roger this ?
