I am uncomfortable with this approach.

It does not document the data structure concepts,
like the previous versions did.

Nor does it define an API.

It's sort of half-way inbetween.

Meanwhile, I would not try and be sneaky about
this, and "hide the issue from the user". Otherwise,
users will run into problems when they start coding
systems which use sets of sets of sets nested
arbitrary levels deep, or when they use sets of
sequences of sets of sequences, or some other
such variants.
