gollark: Clearly, we need a way to be generic over... zero-argument functions, defaults and actual values, somehow.
gollark: We have `ok_or`, `ok_or_else`, and variants for many other unwrap-type things.
gollark: I was writing some code, and I realized what *else* resulted in lots of duplicated fairly similar things: where a default value comes from.
gollark: No, that's an old idea.
