Playing with it some more, I have a few ideas/tweaks :)
1. Maybe we should rename deftype to def-isa since it only overrides isa, not type or coerce? That would also fit with how we use defcall to extend coercion to function, defcoerce to extend coerce, defset to extend assignment, etc.
2. I'm thinking of renaming the types table to type-predicates.
At the same time, I kind of feel like having a dash makes it deviate a little... And "defisa" just doesn't look right in my opinion. Do you think having a slight variance would be ok?
Thanks! I see it now. Amazing how much difference it makes to see it working in a known context.
I figured out why '=' wasn't working; we were redefining it further down the file. I fixed it by moving deftype to later, and now we can go back to '='. https://github.com/arclanguage/anarki/commit/2c12a9e4f8. Does that seem reasonable?
