casting each to `Result` compiles, but is verbose:
```
return i > 0 ? cast(Result) Success!int(i) : cast(Result)
Failure("Sorry");
```
** Could someone more knowledgeable than me explain why
implicit conversion does not happen with the ternary op, but
works fine with if/else? Presumably, it is because the op
returns a single type and implicit conversion is performed
after computing the expression's return type? If this somehow
worked, it would make the SumType package much more ergonomic **
It's just that tenary requires the same type in both branches. It
was already so in C.
return i > 0 ? (retval = Success!int(i)) : (retval =
Failure("Sorry"));
should work
