Tree-IL is designed to simplify code that analyzes it, which means
making it as simple as possible. Every redundancy in its representation
requires corresponding redundant code in _every_ instance of pattern
matching done on it, and there are a great many such instances in
module/language/tree-il/*.scm.
We could only justify such a redundancy if there were a *very*
compelling benefit. What is the benefit?
