Scala 3 improves implicit cnversion greatly by adding the
Conversion
type and other restrictions. And I think we can do even better by rebranding the entire idea of implicit conversions by renamingConversion
toAutoConversion
andscala.language.implicitConversion
toscala.language.autoConversion
.Implicits has a bad rap in Scala. Scala 3 has extracted many use cases of implicits into their own construct. I think conversions can also benefit from this effort.
Just throwing it out there.
