1) Huh, I didn't think this would work because the record type is already nil, but apparently it does. Good to know
2) `null` is bad because the predicate would be `null?`, which collides even worse with Scheme. Any other suggestions? `nothing`? `nul` with one ell? I think it would be too easy for people to miss that one letter and be confused why things don't work as they should.
