The C# impl is still early and I think what will end up happening is that a lot of the boilerplate will end up being owned by source generators in the long term. C# team has a habit of "make it work, make it better". Whatever v1 gets released is some base capability that v2+ will end up making more terse. I'm happy and OK with that; I'd rather have ugly unions than no unions (yes, I already use OneOf)
