Hi Doug,

Yes. Swift needs strong Set API’s that play nicey-nicey with the API Guidelines 
and this proposal is a firm effort in that direction.

> Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?
Yes. This proposal takes nouns that have no commonly used verb form and forms 
them into verbs, e.g. ‘union’ into ‘formUnion’. It may not look especially 
pretty to some, but is effective.

While not languages, the proposal provides SetAlgebra API that is at least as 
understandable as Mathematica and much more so than Matlab.

I’ve been following this discussion since it’s inception back in…what, early 
February? I have read the API’s and diff’s. Many times.
