I have changed my mind (for now) - while my bottom-up understanding
of who things work causes the idea to make sense. 

I find I expect delete($ARRAY[2..3]) to behave like splice,
and _know_ my users will.

If there is no 
need to make things work on arrays as arrays then maybe we leave it 
for now.
