If you want to be able to consume the elements by shifting,
you can always create a tied object that kees a cursor and
a reference to the underlying array and gives you that
access (and it could die for splicing

Go us.
For Cis computed arrays, things get more complicated. Since there
are no true 'holes' in a primitive-typed array, the correct behavior
there would seem to be to autofill the array using the computed values.
For example, an empty array:
my int @a is computed { $^index ** 2 }
@a[2

starters, this would mean that you could easily use an array for
caching

If you want such 'is computed' thingy, then tie it or wrap it in your
own
