I had assumed that'd be illegal: each of $.thing, @.thing and %.thing
autogenerates a method named thing. I would hope that is illegal, for my
head would hurt otherwise keeping track of what a particular "thing"
means.
We surely don't allow the following in the same class:
has @.thing is Array of Cat;
has @.thing is Array of Dog;
It seems to me that the $.thing/@.thing issue is similar (though the
sigil makes this easier for the compiler):
has $.thing is Scalar;
has @.thing is Array;
