It has, providing tuples without that generally doesn't need language
support, like D or C++ tuples. When you have multiple assignment, you can
fully use the power of tuples, if not, it's just syntax sugar for structs,
or some kind of limited list.

Tuples are much more useful when are a *language construct*.
