you'll have to forgive me, but isn't this why there should be a `::new()` callable attached to the struct?

I'm really new at Rust, but that was my takeaway, e.g. `String` has `String::new()`

The convention of providing a new() function isn't relevant here, that name isn't magic, the Rust compiler doesn't care whether it exists, and it won't cause Rust to do anything special with tuples (or any other data structure) that happen to have a similar shape.

String::new() just makes you an empty String, which, since an empty String doesn't own any storage and doesn't contain anything, is very cheap (and indeed constant evaluable), likewise Vec::new() makes an empty Vec.

What your parent commenter wants is for Rust to make the appropriate MyStruct, but without them needing to say MyStruct each time, which would have worked in e.g. C or Go.
