Then what ARE you suggesting it for?

As far as I can tell, it would be a handy shorthand.

And you had suggested it could result in more efficient bytecode, but I
think someone else thought that wasn't the case.

It could lead to some optimization -- literals being treated as contents,
yes?

But what does that matter? are they heavenly used in any common code?
