Hi Andy, I totally agree with your sentiment about sets but noone will use them or understand them if noone else shows how they work, so avoidance isn't the answer I would say. I have seen lots of examples of code that creates arrays of unique values which totally bypass using sets which is ashame since it is a common thing in most languages. I am glad you noticed such a detail about the naming too, I always try to implement code in a readable, testable and understandable manner more than a short, one line hot-shot one even though as you said, doing so would be simple enough. 🤷♂️
