This is my favourite way to iterate, but the hard lesson is at some point after trying a bunch of things comes the Big Cleanup (tm). Is that a potential issue for this with Zig?

From my perspective zig doesn't have "big cleanup" upfront. It's removing older features as it goes.

stdlib changes as it wants from version to version. So do language features. Since zig is pre-1.0, zig foundation isn't scared of breaking changes.

0.16's IO API changes might be that cleanup.
