A recent rakudo commit [1] is a quick fix for #78896 [2] to allow
exponentiation of Duration's.
I'm uneasy with allowing this and I think the spec probably meant not
to but is badly worded [3]:
Durations allow additive operations with other durations, and allow
any numeric operation with a number as the other argument:
$duration * $duration # WRONG, durations aren't geometric
$duration * 2 # ok, a duration twice as long
2 * $duration # same
What are your thoughts?
