//! blue's string and number core.
//!
//! tatara-lisp ships arithmetic, comparison, list and trig primitives and
//! **no string operations at all** — no length, no concatenation, no case
//! conversion, no number parsing. For a language whose surface is Ruby's, that
//! is the largest parity gap there is: `String` is the most-used type in Ruby
//! by a wide margin.
//!
//! # Why these live in blue and not in tatara-lisp
//!
//! The fleet rule is to extend the substrate rather than re-implement, and
//! generic helpers belong upstream. These are not generic: the *semantics* are
//! blue's, and they are Ruby's semantics specifically.
//!
//! The clearest case is `length`. Ruby's `String#length` counts **characters**;
//! Rust's `str::len` counts **bytes**; Elixir's `String.length/1` counts
//! grapheme clusters. Three languages, three answers, all defensible. Blue owes
//! its users Ruby's answer, and encoding that choice into tatara-lisp would push
//! one language's convention onto every other consumer of the substrate.
//!
//! Promoting a genuinely encoding-neutral core upstream later stays open; the
//! character-counting ones are blue's by right.
//!
//! # Character, not byte, not grapheme
//!
//! Every index and length here is in **Unicode scalar values** (Rust `char`).
//! That matches Ruby for the overwhelming majority of text and is stated rather
//! than left to be discovered — a `length` that silently returns bytes is the
//! bug that only appears once a user types a non-ASCII character.
//!
//! Grapheme clusters (Elixir's choice) would need a segmentation table; where
//! the two differ — a family emoji, a combining accent — blue reports scalar
//! values. `a_combining_sequence_counts_scalars_not_graphemes` pins it.
