  • approved, as long as that doesn’t change the language semantics

  • idea approved

Make sure we can fix the parser's bad list/number interactions · Issue #8613 · NixOS/nix · GitHub

  • decision: don’t change behavior but issue a warning

Nix parsers merges multiple attribute set literals for the same key incorrectly depending on definition order · Issue #7115 · NixOS/nix · GitHub

  • Very weird behavior, but OK-ish in a way as it’s deterministic and could be well defined
  • Couldn’t reproduce
