  • closes make metatable type stringification friendlier #2544
  • changes { @metatable { }, { } } to setmetatable<{ }, { }>
  • i updated and ran tests on NixOS 26.05 x86_64 w/ make test
  • although this could possibly be conflated w an unsolved built-in type function i think the mental model here should be the same
  • this (very small) change is 100% human written
