- * — a longer array is a member of the set it describes (see "Structs and
- * tuples are open" in `../README.md`) — and the open form below says so. It is
- * commented out because TypeScript could not handle it, so this renders the
- * closed approximation instead.
- *
- * That is a limitation of this renderer, **not** a statement about the value
- * model. Do not cite the exact mapping as evidence that tuples are closed and
- * add a length check to `../parse/module.f.mjs`; that inference is what
- * produced #1622.
+ * Maps a tuple schema to a readonly tuple of resolved types, with the
+ * **trailing** positions whose sets admit `undefined` rendered optional:
+ * `[number, bigint, option(boolean), option(string)]` becomes
+ * `readonly[number, bigint, (boolean|undefined)?, (string|undefined)?]`.
+ *
+ * That is the same rule {@link StructTs} applies per key — a member is
+ * required exactly when its set excludes `undefined` — so an array may stop
+ * at the last required position, which is what `../parse/module.f.mjs` and
+ * `../validate/module.f.mjs` accept. Only the trailing run: TypeScript
+ * forbids a required element after an optional one, so a position that admits
+ * `undefined` with a required one after it stays required with `undefined` in
+ * its type (see {@link _tupleInteriorOption}).
+ *
+ * **Deriving this generically took three specific moves**, each defeating an
+ * error that sank the obvious spellings — do not simplify it back:
+ *
+ * - `MappedTs` resolves `Ts<>` **once per position**, and the split then walks
+ *   the mapped tuple rather than the schema. Testing `undefined extends
+ *   Ts<Last>` during the walk evaluates `Ts<>` twice per position and raises
+ *   TS2589 (excessively deep).
+ * - `Extract<…, readonly unknown[]>` is what makes a mapped type spreadable.
+ *   Spreading it directly raises TS2574 ("a rest element type must be an array
+ *   type") — TypeScript cannot prove a mapped type over a generic `keyof T` is
+ *   array-shaped. An `& readonly unknown[]` intersection silences that too,
+ *   but leaves the intersection in the rendered type, so `Equal<>` against a
+ *   hand-written tuple fails; `Extract` resolves clean.
+ * - `extends infer M extends …` forces each intermediate to resolve before it
+ *   is used in rest position. Without it the concrete instantiation works and
+ *   the generic one does not.
+ *
+ * A recursive form that prepends onto an all-optional tail (rather than
+ * splitting) crashes the compiler outright — a Go stack overflow in tsgo
+ * 7.0.2, not a diagnostic.
+ *
+ * **The exact length is the model, not an approximation of it.** A bare tuple
+ * schema is *closed* — the positions it declares and no others (see "Structs
+ * and tuples are closed" in `../README.md`) — which is what a TypeScript tuple
+ * already means, so this rendering and the schema denote the same set and
+ * `validate`'s success cast is sound. A schema admitting more says so, and

- * ## Structs and tuples are open
- *
- * Openness is the shared rule, not a `parse` detail — see "Structs and tuples
- * are open" in `../README.md`. `validate` iterates the *schema's* entries, so
- * an undeclared key or a longer array is never visited: it is accepted, and it
- * is still there afterwards because the value is returned as-is. An absent
- * member reads as `undefined`, so a member is required exactly when its set
- * excludes `undefined`.
- *
- * **Do not add a length check for tuples here.** `Ts<readonly [42]>` is the
- * exact tuple only because TypeScript cannot express the open one (see
- * `../ts/types.ts` `TupleTs`); reading that rendering as the value model is
- * what produced #1622, whose check lived in this module's ancestor and was
- * deleted with it. A schema that wants exact members says so — see
- * `../todo/close-type.md`.
+ * ## Structs and tuples are closed
+ *
+ * Closedness is the shared rule, not a `parse` detail — see "Structs and
+ * tuples are closed" in `../README.md`. A bare `Struct` or `Tuple` admits the
+ * members it declares and no others, so an undeclared key or an index past the
+ * prefix rejects the value. A tuple answers by **length** as well as by
+ * member, because a hole past the prefix is no member and would slip through
+ * the member check alone.
+ *
+ * Closedness is about *undeclared* members and leaves the required/optional
+ * rule alone: an absent member reads as `undefined`, so a member is required
+ * exactly when its set excludes `undefined`, and a schema whose trailing
+ * position admits it still accepts a shorter array. A tuple schema declares by
+ * length, so a hole in the *schema* is a position whose schema is `undefined`
+ * — see "A hole is a declared position" in `../README.md`.
+ *
+ * The length check is the model rather than an inference from `Ts<>`. #1622
+ * added one by reading `Ts<readonly[42]>`'s exact tuple as the value model
+ * while the model said open, and it was reverted for that reason; what has
+ * changed since is the model, not the reading.
+ *
+ * ## Stated rests
+ *
+ * `rest(c, r)` admits the declared members plus any number of members
+ * belonging to `r`, and `open(c)` — `rest(c, unknown)` — admits anything else
+ * besides. This widens what is accepted and changes nothing else: a success
+ * still carries the very value it was given, undeclared members included.
