I agree and being able to ask about the size of an instance implies things that 
aren’t true. Sticking “value” labels on everything doesn’t change the fact that 
sizeOf(swift_array) is not going to give you the size of the underlying buffer 
no matter how you slice it.

IMHO Sizes are for types, just drop the instance stuff. There is no point in 
keeping it.
