Your comment brings me back to this other (structurally similar, it seems to me) discussion.

[here](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/unpacking-a-named-tuple-using-field-names-and-slurping/100035/14)

I would think that the macros used to slurp part of a NamedTuple could be adapted to this situation, where rest=() and on the right hand side is a tuple with n repeating values.  
I’d be curious to see what this macro would look like?
