I would assume the error is correct, because if we ban reordering than labeled tuple types will become incompatible if the labels are swapped, remember the strict order or labels.

Why error here? In this case. It's not a label but he type. Let (y: x1, x: y1) = pair Error. Let (x: x2, y: y2) = pair With the revised pitch that no longer prohibits all labels, x2 is 3 and y2 is 5. In the original version, error. Let (x3, y3) = pair x3 is 3 and y3 is 5. After the change, What do (x_n, y_n) print and Which assignments are errors?

Labels are great, this is a fact for sure. The point I was trying to make is that labels in tuples how either a meaning or not at all. // This is a shortcut for the tuple type `(x: Int, y: Int)` let foo = (x: 0, y: 0) // In this case the labels are only used for description, // they do not server any benefit here are most likely redundant let (x: x, y: y) = foo Labels elsewhere are a different story and I do support the cosmetic addition Chris Lattner sketched out here: https://lists.swift.org/pipermail/swift-evolution-announce/2016-July/000233.html However this is about closures and not tuples, I don’t think this would anyhow affect the removal of labels in tuple destructuring. Plus I don’t see this to create an inconsistent in Swift, because as I already said, labels in tuple destructuring are useless. How come? I just illustrated their use. They help humans write correct code by allowing the compiler to check an assertion that the human knows which labels go with which positions in the tuple. _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list swift-evolution@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list swift-evolution@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list swift-evolution@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
