The @implicit is there to point out that you cannot call that
method
explicitly; it gets called for you implicitly when you
construct an object
as a copy of another object.
How is this different from other types of constructors or
destructors?
I also very much dislike the syntax - it makes no sense to me at
all. I commented on the PR itself asking why it differs so much
from C++ - specifically, what's bad about the C++ way of doing
things there that we want to avoid?
