Some operations would be simpler. The one I can think of head is equality check between the whole arrays, it could just memcpy the run length buffer and compare the child arrays like you would compare any array of the child type. Probably not worth the complexity of disallowing it, but maybe someone knows more important cases. > Best, Tobias
