Cool to hear you've worked on ARC-AGI — I poked with it too. You’re totally right about the messy traversal space, especially with parallel branches. What feels ambiguous at the token level becomes structured ambiguity in the AST — and that’s progress.

My hunch is that LLMs don’t need to solve the whole traversal space — they just need a clean, abstract interface. Even parallel branches can be normalized into a schema that the model can reason over consistently. And in practice, you rarely need full recursion or a complete tree walk to understand a node — but having that option unlocks deeper comprehension when it counts.

This kind of structural understanding would also massively improve Copilot-style tools, especially for less popular libraries where token-level familiarity breaks down. If models could reason over types and structure instead of guessing based on frequency, completions would be a lot more reliable outside the top 1% of APIs.
