Bad Huffman coding, IMHO. Could we s/hierarchical/tree/?
Huffman coding? How often do you you call meta object methods?
Anyway, I agree that :tree would be nicer (notice that "hierarchical" is
sufficiently hard to type so it's typed wrongly in 50% of the
occurrences ;-))
I've found 2 different ways to misspell hierarcha^Whierachi^W*sigh*
already while stubbing that flag into Rakudo yesterday. So I'd happily
see it become tree. If there's no objections soonish, let's change it to
that.
