I like how this is structured. When I read that inline types get copied-on-borrow I was pretty put off. Then since fields of inline types can't be assigned new values it seems a bit better, as long as you roughly know what's happening. Hopefully the diagnostics are good enough there. I like the detailed alternatives that weren't chosen.

I appreciate being able to choose which side of the tradeoff (always-copy or heap allocated) you want to be on, but either way be assured it's safe. Not sure how I feel about it in practice without trying it, though :)
