The type consistency and predictability is more important to me.
Why is it essential that string views be a different type, rather than an internal implementation detail, like long vs int? Today's strings can already return a new object or an existing one which happens to be equal.
Is this just a matter of efficiency, or are you making a fundamental distinction?
