This episode is a bit wild. I discuss my planned implementation for arrays in Sea. I discuss a potential improvement for nullable types that doesn't actually work, and I remove Imaginary types from my language to drastically simplify my code.

I didn't discuss it in this video (since I'm all over the place in this one), but the primary reason I want sizes of arrays stored at runtime is for heap allocated arrays. If I don't know the size of a 2D array on the heap, I cannot automatically free it. I don't want my heap and stack array implementation to differ either. The main issue is just how pointers work in functions in C.
