You don't need to make this public. Look what it implements and provide your own implementation.

Separately, we likely need to address how we expose a runtime value correspond to a symbolic `Var` value. We will encounter similar issues with tuples and funcs, so we need some general mapping i expect. This may become easier to identify as we refactor the code base more cleanly into dialects.
