That is why I explicitly noted that I used it as a keyword in my concept of 
fixed and arbitrary long tuples or variadics. Simply rename vector in my whole 
sketch to something else if you think that vectors should have a different 
meaning in the language.

What I seek for is the ability to have a nice shortcut for tuples, which in 
it’s concept could also find some use in generic variadics. (This overlap is 
also visible in the generics manifesto.) I simply called it a *vector*, one 
could rename it as variadic, but that seems not to be precise, not for 
(variadic(16) UInt8).

Vectors, Tuples, and Structs are all closely related concepts with a lot of 
overlap, but also some key differences. If anything, IMO a Tuple is closer to 
an anonymous ad-hoc Struct than it is to a Vector.
