I don’t think this is the answer that was asked for. I bet it’s more a technical question from the internal point of of view.

In Swift, you use `static in struct and enum` and `class in class`. For example,

struct Foo {
    static func bar() {
        
    }
}

class ClassFoo {
    class func bar() {
        
    }
}

Another the `class func bar()` can replace to `static` as well. Here the `static` and `class` are equal in functions of classes.

And `class` is a keyword.

class ClassFoo2 {
    static func bar() {
        
    }
}

I was expecting static to be a builtin. Does anybody know why it must be a keyword?
