> Metadata is a really useful feature, and it's been helping me a lot. Could you show me concrete example? I still don't understand the value of metadata and rarely use it except type hint. I saw active using metadata on some project(e.g. postal[1]), but I think regular hashmap instead of metadata is also good enough for the purpose.
