This is not as clean as just this:
MyFlags flags = .A | .B | .C | .D | .E | .F;
I feel it's much easier to read, there is no noise
Maybe the improvement of with could come handy when pairing it
with ```auto`` uses where the typesystem can't guess what you
give it to him
But they are different features, both are valid imo
