Hmm, they seem to have chosen to avoid names to the choices in the union, joining C++ variants and (sort of) TypeScript unions: unions are effectively just defined by a collection of types.
Other languages have unions with named choices, where each name selects a type and the types are not necessarily all different. Rust, Haskell, Lean4, and even plain C unions are in this category (although plain C unions are not discriminated at all, so they’re not nearly as convenient).

I personally much prefer the latter design.
