The speed this problem was noted and fixed demonstrates (a) the
importance given to documentation, and (b) the diligence of JJ.
Kudos to JJ and those who helped fix the problem.

When one goes to make a fix, and the fixer is broken, it's a bit
recursive. Can anyone cure problem #1, so I can get to step #2? :-)*

Todd,
Some of what you have said in this email list over the years has been
very valuable. You ask questions that get some very illuminating

https://raku-advent.blog/2020/12/20/day-20-a-raku-in-the-wild/ looks like a
practical project to me.
May I ask if there is any practical perl6 project running? For example,
homebrew by ruby, k8s by go, flask by python etc.
Thanks.
Going back to the original question,
should not the doc page say?
method cos( Cool:D: --> Cool:D )

If a method does not explicitly specify its invocant type, it is set
to the type of the enclosing class.
The `cos` method is declared in the `Cool` class, so that is its

The doc shows that it's declared in the `Cool` class.
So, the doc is fine as is for the invocant.
