once you define a StructType how do create an instance ?

new Point2D({x: 0, y: 0});

or binary data can create instances only through ArrayTypes as shown in your
slides ?

is there no proposal to bring named arguments as is for python in JS.next ?

function withDefaults(a = 0, b = 0, c = 0) {
    return a + b + c;
}

If yes, is there no way to call arguments pythonish way ?

withDefaults(a = 1, c = 2)

?

This is off topic in any case so no need to discuss it here
