No I am really confused:
What part of
my int8 $u = 0xF8; $u.range
is not following
method range(--> Range:D)

Unless you’re getting the line `method range(--> Range:D)` from
somewhere else, you’re looking at
https://docs.raku.org/routine/range, which says
> Documentation for method |range| assembled from the following types:

`int8` is not an `X:OutOfRange` object (which is an Exception), so it
can’t participate in the method you reference.
Okay, I think I get it. I missed the "X:OutOfRange"
and expected the qualifier to be in the definition line.
What exactly is "X:OutOfRange" anyway?
