> In the context of ListArrays, "values" indicates the elements in a slot of
> the ListArray. Since MapArray isa ListArray, "values" indicates the same
> thing and the elements are key-item pairs. This naming scheme is not
> idiomatic; these *should* be called key-value pairs but that would require
> propagating the renaming down to ListArray.
