Thanks for the feedback! In my experience over the years of watching internals, many controversial language changes do not survive the voting. Two Yeses are balanced against one No, so there needs to be overwhelming agreement. Surely it could at least be said that even if it fails, it is easier for someone who later comes up with a similar idea to find past efforts if the RFC is drafted and the results of the voting are there. However, the July 19 Feature Freeze for 8.2 is approaching! So I'll try to write an RFC on this proposal later for 8.3. For now, I will look at the interpreter code and see if I can come up with another proposal and its implementation that is a little less controversial (like constants on traits) until the 8.2 effective deadlines. My ability to write English is very limited, so probably I cannot proceed with multiple proposals in parallel.
