ah yes, this is true -- maybe the better change would be to just add `@property 
value` to each of those instead of collapsing the classes? (If that's the 
actual convenience we're trying to achieve)

correct there's no need, but it's a best practice to always call 
`generic_visit` in all `visit_*` methods, I have a linter I haven't finished up 
yet that checks this.  And who knows if that'll be true in the future!
