I believe I forgot to update here but the latest version of Elixir which treats this as a type check is working really well and we don’t have plans for now to deprecate it. I believe the warning was also updated to say you might keep it or remove it. As you prefer!

Just tested the latest version and this works! This feels like a great pattern.
I am encouraged to pattern match which is perfect and I also get to prove to my future-self that I actually intended to update the particular struct!
