It seems like an interesting idea. In particular, I like that these
patterns naturally support scanning in parallel without zip. The need
for zipping always feels like a shortcoming in Python/Haskell.
It would be nice to have some analog to Python's set and dictionary
comprehension not just list comprehensions. Maybe also a concise syntax
way for things like "argmax".
In general, I'm disappointed that Kawa moves away from prefix notation
(i.e. I will not use it these things).
