Well, passing a 'type' string parameter to select between what is essentially
different object sub-types, seems internal-ish.
I can't think of anything else in the public Perl 6 API which does this; a more
Perl 6'ish API would dispatch based on *different* named parameters, or simply
make the object sub-types available as separate subclasses.
So it might make sense to consider `Junction.new` as "not public API" for now,
until this is ironed out.

Noted; Marking the ticket as TESTNEEDED.
A test for the current behavior could look like:
use Test;
throws-like { Junction.new }, X::Multi::NoMatch, "Junction.new with no
arguments";
