[swift-evolution] [Discussion] Seal `T.Type` into `Type<T>`

[Adrian Zubarev]

For those who are interested, this is the latest version of the proposal: https://gist.github.com/DevAndArtist/1332e1458e0791f8f4b1649cbeb4fce5

Casting as written in this proposal works in theory, but I had some problems implementing it, so it does work with protocols conformance

We also have some alternative ideas which are NOT YET merged into this single proposal. Stay patient.

I’m responding anything that is related to your last version directly on gist rather than here, because it’s me not understanding a few things of that version.

That’s why our main version tackles the whole calculation inside Type<T> rather than splitting it into the Mirror type.

I’m totally fine to consider in the alternative section. :)

It looks like Github does not send notifications. Just in case, I’ve responded here.

By the way, I very much like how you recommend to use someType.metatype.staticMethod() and avoid any other usage of metatypes.
