So it’s a limitation of overloading? I mentioned I saw the idea from Swift (https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/Swift/Conceptual/Swift_Programming_Language/Enumerations.html) but I don’t know if they have overloaded functions. That’s too bad, it would be a nice feature. Thanks.
