Wow, I can't believe I didn't think of this. This makes things a bit 
easier to reason about, because now we have a way to explicitly form a 
string and a way to explicitly form a tuple. I just tested, and 
"string".tupleof is an error, so that fits perfectly.

I have to confer with my partner in crime, but thank you for this 
nugget, and I really like the direction with the discussion here.
