Is there a more direct way to plot a vector of vectors as a scatter plot with plots?

```julia
julia> using Plots, StaticArrays

julia> points = rand(SVector{2,Float64},10);

julia> scatter([x[1] for x in points],[x[2] for x in points]) # a cleaner way to do this?

```

One option:

```julia
scatter(eachrow(hcat(points...))...)

```

Maybe

```julia
scatter(first.(x)..., last.(x)...)

```

No need to splat it seems: `scatter(first.(points),last.(points))`

Of course, those are vectors already! Perils of posting from mobile…

Shorter: `scatter(Tuple.(points))`
