Why not just specify that :flat always expands before MMD dispatch?
I don't see much of a use case for the current

Exactly. Snippets from S06:
Multimethod and multisub invocants are specified

Invocants are the first few *positional* arguments used for a function
call, but certainly not arguments inside some kind of flattening

Imagine you have instead of ...
'foo'( args :flat )

That's unfortunate. I thought :flat was like the splatty behavior in

Reading up and down the S and As, I don't see any indication that Perl6

Yes, exactly. I thought :flat and :slurpy were symmetric.
Look at the Flattening argument lists

In this example, $x, $y, and $z are positional args. I would expect C
foo(1,2,3) and C foo([,[EMAIL PROTECTED]) to be identical calls --

That's still no sign of providing multi invocants

To flatten before the list is even passed into the subroutine, use the eager
list operator:

I'm not sure it's just multi-dispatch; it looks like all signature checking.
