 Todo's:
 [ ] document illegality of package-external tuple assignments to structs
 	w/ private fields: P.T(1, 2) illegal since same as P.T(a: 1, b: 2) for
 	a T struct { a b int }.
 [ ] should probably write something about evaluation order of statements even

-[ ] string conversion: string([]int{}) vs string(int) conversion. Former is

-[ ] do we need explicit channel conversion (to change channel direction)?

-[ ] enum symbols that are not mixable with ints or some other mechanism
