I prefer the consistency that it be available across types without exception more than I care that the functionality is duplicated. Plus if Swift eventually introduces derived value types, it may play a bigger role. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.swift.evolution/12644/ <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.swift.evolution/12644/> http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.swift.evolution/10652 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.swift.evolution/10652> http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.swift.evolution/153 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.swift.evolution/153> -- E
