Hmm, this might not work. It should be @x[*+0..*-1-*/2]
on the footing that the last * is dwiming the length.
This implies that dispatches to &infix:<->:(Whatever,
Whatever) and &infix:(Whatever,Int) are supporte

How far can we drive the dwimmy use of the three values
that determine array access, i.e first and last index and
length. E.g. would @x[*+0..*/2] roughly slice to the middl

Hmm... how about this:
Normally, * in the context of an indexer acts as a Range object,
