Yeah, I was expecting something like what you get in F#.

But maybe it is just the nature of the [C#] language. Still, I think this looks more readable than if-statements.

EDIT: Maybe it is just a bad example of pattern matching, the one they put on that page. I'm betting pattern matching works on the added tuple type. That would be pretty handy.

I've got some more performance improvements and code cleanup in my stash RN I've not quite finished up yet.
