Wonderful! I'm intrigued.... >Note: the singleton tuple does not support tuple syntax. What is the syntax for the singleton tuple? We have a dilemma: If we extend the singleton syntax to support non-singleton tuples, then we'll have at least two definitions of a tuple for each non-singleton tuple, which is syntactically inelegant; however, if we don't, then the singleton syntax will be different from the non-singleton syntax, which is also syntactically inelegant.
