Great points Brent. I think the ValuesEnumerable method would be the most 
straight forward. Also, the number of cases are likely only going to be in 
range of 6–20, so iterating would be fine I think. People can create something 
like `Dictionary(Planet.allValues.enumerated().lazy.map{ ($1, $0) })` (I think 
that’s right) if they really need.
