@guybedford Is this fix better than #33?

Closes #19

Thanks for adding this, I have a weak preference for this form. Seems sensible to leave this one open to discussion?

I'm against. It hurts consistency. Edge cases, even when they're pointless and advisable not to write, should behave the same, as much as possible, as if there were no sharp edge. It simplifies semantics, tools relying on semantics, spec size and teaching. It also saves special cases in code generation scenarios.
