Run time is the problem though. If the compiler knows how to define a record
using that syntax you should be able to do
rec := (x: a; y: b; z: c);
instead of mucking around with constructors which do basically the same thing
but with boiler plate code. The syntax for a default constructor already exists
in the language but it’s not implemented outside of type declarations for some
reason.
