What is the benefit of that?

Would fix: https://github.com/JuliaSIMD/LoopVectorization.jl/issues/365

Out of curiosity, what do you think of [BangBang.jl](https://github.com/JuliaFolds/BangBang.jl)? It maybe nice to try and support a more uniform interface, e.g. `x = push!!(x, 2)`. Of course, the methods changing...

```julia julia> A = zeros(3, 4, 5); julia> A[:] = 1:60; julia> Aview = view(A, :, 2, :); julia> ArrayInterface.StrideIndex(Aview)[1,1] 1 julia> Aview[ArrayInterface.StrideIndex(Aview)[1,1]] 4.0 julia> Aview[1,1] 4.0 ``` What's the...

Also, methods like `pointer` do the offsetting for you: ```julia julia> using ArrayInterface julia> A = zeros(3, 4, 5); julia> A[:] = 1:60; julia> Aview = view(A, :, 2, :);...

What about something for extracting static/known size information? Something like: ```julia known_start(::Any) = nothing known_stop(::Any) = nothing known_start(::Type{
