As a Chapel user, it seems as though it would be orthogonal if a split initialization that currently could be written as:
var r: R;
r = expr;
could also be written as:
var r: R;
(r, ...) = fnReturningTuple();
since either form represents the first assignment to r and one is just expressed more straightforwardly than the other. However, today this seems to result in r being default initialized and then assigned.
