Maybe you want to byte align some data, or pack to a certain size but keep compat. I think they're going to be rare cases, but I can see it being used.
Fun little game, but I think the questions jump context so much it's a little unrepresentative. It might be better to group things into "packs", which have more real-world representative structure to them.
For example, lots of "editing something.js" file permission requests, and then an "npm publish" is far more normal, and it's more of a risk, if you're used to pressing Y lots and then suddenly out of the blue...
And so the cycle will continue. Always a shame when languages cave like this and add extra unnecessary complexity and error prone hard to parse syntax.
It'll be interesting to see the next language that comes along rejecting bloat in favor of simplicity, and then we can all start again.
