“The gates of hell are open night and day; Smooth the descent, and easy is the way: But to return, and view the cheerful skies, In this the task and mighty labor lies.”

Valid. Maybe something can be learned from using them more frequently, either by the maker or by the user.

I consider Unique as user-defined affine types— half of what makes up a linear type.

Clean and Mercury are both mentioned in: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substructural_type_system

And then I finally realized they’re RGB vectors and additive:

000: black

001: red

010: green

011: yellow

100: blue

101: magenta

110: cyan

111: white
