In the new nim 19.0, nil and seq of length 0 are the same. So you should not run into this as often.
These are now all valid and work:
var a: seq[int]
a.add 1
var b = newSeq[int]()
b.add 1
var c: seq[int] = @[]
c.add 1
Run
initializing all seq[] with a dummy variable then wiping them before their
intended use \- this seems really strange, but if it works for you it works.
