As a USER, I would like to pass homogeneous tuples to a function, in order to reduce the number of arguments.

Use case

In a numerical simulation, homogeneous tuples are often used to collect parameters together in a logical fashion. For example:

• degrees = (2, 3, 3) may be the polynomial degree along each dimension (x1, x2, x3) of the computational domain;
• ncells = (100, 200, 200) may be the number of grid cells along (x1, x2, x3);
• periodic = (False, False, True) may tell whether the domain is periodic along (x1, x2, x3).

It is convenient to pass these parameters as tuples, rather than unpacking their contents:

def func(degrees: tuple[int], ncells: tuple[int], periodic: tuple[bool], ... ):
