To clarify on the type switches, would it have to be used like this: type C interface { type X, Y }
func f(x X) X { return x } func g[T C](v T) T { switch v { case X: // to use v as an X // we must convert x0 := X(v) x1 := f(x0) // to use x1 as a T // we must convert back t := T(x1) return t case Y: return v } } And that the lack of a dedicated syntax to distinguish the case like .[type] also means that you could no longer write func h[T comparable](x, a, b T) { switch x { case a: case b: } } Regardless, all of these changes are fantastic!
