My plan for 5.16 are types. Type-checks make perl slower and might come handy for discipline,
but using types offers many optimizations possibilities.

Type-checking with use types already existed since 2002, and nobody used it. So I'll focus on optimizations.
Typed arrays, hashes and scalars.
For core and the compiler.
