gollark: Although you might need a Box<> to avoid apiology there, hmm.
gollark: SmallVec, quite possibly.
gollark: A vector for every node is *probably* suboptimal?
gollark: The closest you're likely to get is some specialized DSLs and Haskell making it one line.
gollark: ```ruststruct Tree<T> { thing: T, children: Vec<Tree<T>>}```to be apiologically inelegant about it.
