If you create this sub to do value checking, then maybe this approach is better
for you:
subset EvenInt of Int where * %% 2; # all the even Ints
subset OddInt of Int where * !%% 2; # all the odd Ints
# works
my EvenInt $x = 42;
# dies with: Type check failed in assignment to $y; expected EvenInt but
got Int (42)
my OddInt $y = 42;
