This is a completely indirect and way too clever way to express what is meant. I have absolutely no pity for this code being slow. Let's rewrite it to simply be more explicit, even if it's a few lines longer. > I wonder if there are cases where the list is both virtual *and* we > aren't able to constant fold some of the space.eq_w()? Yes, there can be, it's easy to write. Even the uuid case has the combinatorial problem, it's just that we expect people to not pass in random combinations of arguments.
