I don't see why we need to micromanage the situations where trailing commas are 
allowed. That's just unnecessarily increasing the fractal complexity of the 
language. We've delegated other style choices like requiring `self.` or brace 
formatting to linters; why does this one need to be legislated by the compiler?
