In some cases you do not have a choice; this is why I started this thread in the first place. If you want to define custom indexing, custom iteration or use the object.method() syntax, you must use tagged types, regardless of whether or not you really need tagged types. It seems odd to me that you must pay an unnecessary cost to use these features just because the language says so (perhaps there is a reason behind the decision, but I can't see why), even if that cost is small.
