I understand. You said the next phase should be to pick the best operator
for each sub-proposal but I'm not sure how I can help with that. If there's
something I can do, let me know and I'm happy to try to do it.

In terms of "bunch of longer examples", what did you have in mind? I could
take some popular library and rewrite a section of it with the proposed
operators, but that would depend on the response to the previous paragraph.
