Just out of curiosity -- could you please describe your real underlying
problem that made you turn to fusion?  The fusion manual is severely
lacking in motivation, esp. when it comes to transformations, so any
examples from the real world are welcome.

Or, to reformulate the question: which imminent problem at hand do you have
and what is the advantage of solving it by fusion instead of by "traditional"
means?

Thank you.

know what *tuples* are useful for.. but the rest? [and the 'rest' does not
even cover ML-style pattern matching])
