You can't exactly keep a distinction that doesn't exist in the first
place. Keep in mind that the concepts of "hash part" and "array part"
are implementation details -- the "array part" is a behind-the-scenes
optimization to make a very common use case faster.
As such, I fail to see how either option actually differs from how Lua
behaves right now.
