rameter visually as well:
a => 42 # a Pair

I could also see going as far as making a named parameter an Enum, or a(nother)
subclass of it.

Hi Eirik,
I thought about this a bit longer. I've seen this before that typo's in
the named arguments can lead to things for which you think would happen
but they don't. proper testing should reveal this of course. But it
would also be nice that an error would be given by perl6 and we would
h
; a(nother) subclass of it.

That's not pushing a pair – that's pushing nothing (no positionals) with
a
l.s.
Can't push/unshift onto an array of pairs!
Below a repl session with pushes
my @p = a => 1, b => 2;
a => 1 b => 2
@p.push(x=>1);
a => 1 b => 2
my Pair @p = a => 1, b => 2;
a => 1 b => 2
@p.push(x=>1);
a => 1 b => 2
my Array $p = [ a => 1, b => 2];
a => 1 b => 2
$p.push(x=>1);
