I agree in it's current state it's more of a novelty than something intended for serious use. (Imagine debugging someone else's code with source rewriting 0_0) Especially with the discrepancy you pointed out with tuple comparison.
I think that it could get to a state where if the debugging was figured out, and the abstractions/usability became nicer that it could be have some serious use though. Mostly the intention with this was to get something working, that can be iterated on if it makes sense.
