Fortunately in Rust you can have it both ways, as in `Type::Variant` most of the time and `use Type::Variant; … Variant …` in cases where the type name just causes noise.

Example in the playground: https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&editio...

I’ve never done this but this is a great point. I think I’d avoid doing this though because variants often have really short, reusable/general names (leaning into the overall type name being close)

You can put the use statement in the function with the match, or even limit the scope further:

  {
    use MyEnum::*;
    match my_enum {…}
  }
