Learning & using Typescript has been like learning Sass: A cool extension to a language I already know, and whose features I discover a bit more of each time I use it. So I actually didn't know about the tuple type, thanks for pointing that out!
As for isLeft, I want to say that I saw that signature / pattern while I was researching discriminated unions and somehow thought it was required. Again, thanks for the tip.
