[swift-evolution] [Discussion] Enum Leading Dot Prefixes

[T.J. Usiyan]

The honest and lazy truth? Muscle memory.  I type `case .<Foo>` much more
than `case <Foo>` so I tend to pause during declaration more often than I
would like. I can let it go now that I have floated the idea but that was
the reason I pitched it.
