the print methods for those objects. So my first guess is that hyper would
have to have its own method. As far as special casing it, I guess you would
have to have some sort of flag like 'arg=True' to indicate that the object
is inside of something else; and for now, Tuple would be the only thing
paying attention to that flag.
