The rules are explicit but the actual changes in code are very small and unique to this language (or unique from the languages I had ever used). It’s one of those things that you can forget about — because it’s a small difference in code and arguably isn’t explicit.

I forget what it was, but basically my code wasn’t working the way I thought it should and it was solely due to a lowercased struct field. It happened twice where I spent at least a little while trying to figure it out.

And yeah I would guess that I tried to compile. Would be very dumb if I hadn’t although wouldn’t be the dumbest thing I’ve ever done
