Is there any reason CollectionDifference
is a plain Collection
, instead of bidirectional or random-access? Looking at the code (as of commit "3924d1a"), it looks like the authors just simply forgot. Was there a concern that the implementations of the sub-collections be changed to be non-random-access in the future?
The inclusion of index(before:)
is gratuitous if the type wasn't meant to be at least BidirectionalCollection
.
I'll file a bug report if it was an oversight.
