Don't remove tuples. They make it very convenient to pass multiple values around.
Tuples use .0 instead of [0] which prevents any index out of bounds issues at compile time rather than at run time. Tuples should not adopt a dictionary style access because dictionaries imply nil for any key that doesn't exist in the dictionary. Tuples syntax prevents you from using non-existent keys.
