I think this is part of the problem. Nobody can agree on what
they should be called because it's so hard to classify them.
They're not types, they're not values, they're this weird
in-between thing that can be either one, or the other, or both.
Therefore anything containing Type or Value in the name will not
describe exactly what this thing is. Neither will Symbol, nor
Expression, as it can contain both of those again, but not
exclusively. We may as well call it by some name that is
completely unrelated to what it can contain, as it can contain
pretty much *everything*. How about KitchenSinkquence?
