Cyclists use a higher risk vehicle, pedestrians have a natural right to higher priority on shared use paths and in crossings, by the virtue of using the most harmless means of moving in space. That means giving way to pedestrians when they

Cyclists shouldn't take the pavements whatever the reason, they operate a higher risk vehicles, and spreading those risks on pedestrians who didn't chose to pick a higher risk for the purpose of moving around is exactly the disres

I've seen plenty of cyclists just begging to get run over by cars or collide with pedestrians - no spatial awareness, just randomly chosing their way, without realising they use a higher risk vehicle, and that pedestrians have a natura

re-inventing known language features in inferior languages isn't more real-world, it's a self-inflicting kool-aid thirst ^_^

and the cyclists still don't respect pedestrians and abuse their privilege and oftentimes cut them off on pavements and zebra crossings when they feel like it.

don't make it sound as if it's bad, it's actually superb on all these levels: the typelevel, the SMP runtime, and throughput.

Why would you want a special longer syntax for something that's universally accessible by map/filter/fold in all FP languages and a growing number of imperative ones?

No, it's a bad design that doesn't use type composition to restrict invalid representations. People are given type hints, but they still practice the same dynamic typing mistakes as before, including the authors of the lib. Instea
