Description

As part of a drive to improve the code quality of a Julia package, I checked for method ambiguities using Aqua. I found 17 ambiguities in our package and its dependencies, of which 13 are from SentinelArrays. These can be found using

using SentinelArrays
import Aqua

Aqua.test_all(SentinelArrays)

Are you aware of this?
