As I said before, the associated values can be excluded for pattern matching. I
believe this way you can check against the enum case without producing any copy
of the associated types right?!
var _kind: Byte {
switch self {
…
case .javaScript: return 0x0D
case .scopedJavaScript: return 0x0F
…
}
}
Assume we could overload the values by including additional labels to the enum
case.
case javaScript(String)
case javaScript(String, scope: Document) // or more swifty `javascript(String,
withScope: Document)`
Now I could check the case like this to solve the ambiguity.
switch self {
…
case .javaScript: return 0x0D
case .javaScript(_:withScope:): return 0x0F
…
}
Plus I don’t want to wrap values in optionals when there is no need for that.

Why not:

case javascript(String, scope: Document?)

Your desired scenario looks like it's conceptually expressing that Document is
optional, so why not use the type to codify that?

Hmm, I feel like default values wouldn’t work with overloaded enum cases.
In my own project I have something like this:
case javaScript(String)
case scopedJavaScript(String, scope: Document)
// But I'd like it to be:
case javaScript(String)
case javaScript(String, scope: Document)

I just showed a direction of what could be possible.
Personally I think it would be enough if we had this:
enum MyEnum {
case a
case b(Int)
case b(Int, string: String)
}
Where .b can be overloaded by it’s associated types.
Or default values:
enum MyEnum {
case a
case b(Int, string: String = “SomeDefault”)
}
