How about is context(Item) versus is context(Slurpy). :)
Also, shouldn't the *args there be [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is it really okay

This evaluates to 1 in Perl 5:
not 4,3,2,1,0;
Namely, the "not" listOp is taking the last of a variadic, non-slurpy
argument list, boolify it, and return its negation.
What is the Perl 6 signature that correspond to this behaviour?
Also, is this still sane for Perl 6
