There is a very extensive proposal and discussion here: https://elixirforum.com/t/proposal-add-field-puns-map-shorthand-to-elixir/15452
There is also very clear lines draw by myself on what this feature should look like: https://groups.google.com/g/elixir-lang-core/c/XxnrGgZsyVc/m/KgJwV8e-CgAJ There have been many reasons why the proposed syntax is troublesome for Elixir. :) I am looking forward to having this discussion again, in case feelings have changed, but in the interest of everyone's time, I recommend gathering existing information before moving forward. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
