<>After some thought, I find myself with a similar view to John. Strict <>tuples are starting to feel like real language bloat, one tiny addition <>too much. <> <>Remember, every addition we make to the core syntax is multiplied by all <>the parsers for Haskell and tools that have to grok Haskell, and make <>the bar ever-so-slightly higher to producing such tools. There's a <>reason that syntax ends in "tax" :-) <> <> Not to mention all the brains that have to learn it. It seems to me the gain is small, considering how easy it is to do already. <>By all means have strict tuples in a library somewhere. They don't need <>to have special syntax. <> <> Agreed.
