🦋 Problem Solving, a repo for handling problems that require review, deliberation and possibly debate
This seems obvious, but I did not see another issue relating to it. zip's infix and metaoperator, `Z` is tremendously valuable, but it is extremely common to run up against...
The [P5pack](https://raku.land/zef:lizmat/P5pack) module covers most of the functionality needed. And the `use experimental :pack` functionality has bugs: https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/1875

While discussing multi dispatch in `#raku-dev` recently, I came to realize that I have no idea how these `proto` things are actually meant to be used. Beyond their clear utility...
Prelude: Toolchain wise we've long had the issue that tools to display documentation (GitHub, GitLab, raku.land, ...) have an issue with running the Rakudo parser on source code to reach...
