Your estimate of what others will do when
knocking out 10 line scripts in a hurry,

Both.

Piers Cawley pointed out:
%a_students = grep {.key ~~ :i/^a/}, %grades.kv;
I think you could probably get away without the .kv there since, in a
list context you're going to get a list of pairs anyway.
In fact, the code is invalid as it stands. The following variations
work as desired:
Piers Cawley mused:
The idea being that, when you do
a_pure_func($val1|$val2|$val3)
instead of Perl going away and doing the calculation right away, you
get back a 'special' superposition

Any '1' value will trigger a search for undef bit values. Presuming

we could make it lazy thus:
sub a_pure_func(Num $n) is lazy returns Num {
return $n ** $n

which would cause any invocation of Ca_pure_func to cache
its arguments (probably in a closure)
