It's a good question. Reinier, what do you think it ought to print?

I thought someone once suggested maybe literals should always be
assigned a variable. The suggestion is interesting. In terms of
actually using the language feature, inlining values into methods may
not be a very valuable language feature. I see the inlining to be used
more for reference data held in storage.
