> I think I fell victim to premature optimization. We should not have this hierarchy of {{Traverser}} species. The problem -- its not a hierarchy, its hard to maintain, and the optimization gained is trivial -- at best 3 64-bit references.
> Moreover, we can then get rid of the notion of {{TraverserRequirement}} and thus, speed up the {{Traversal}} compilation. [~twilmes] You noted that gathering {{TraverserRequirements}} was a good chunk of compilation time, right?
> As such, we should just have {{DefaultTraverser}} and it has everything we need where if paths are not used then {{this.path = null}}. Thus, you only suffer the 64-bit reference.
