It's currently impossible to formulate expressions like
(field 0 - field 1, field 0 + field 1)
(using(x, y)
as a two-field struct):The same applies for lists and maps, though if we ignore type variations, the same could hypothetically be done for them with a finite number of function extensions in core.
This construct effectively makes struct/list/map literals and (I think) mask expressions redundant, but I didn't deprecate them because they at least feel different.
