Description

Returning a sequence of types might make sense, because the documentation already allows multiple outputs to be listed, i.e., the usage can be of the form `(x,y) = foo()`, and you can have separate entries in `Outputs` for x and y. And some functions take advantage of this, including `flattenRing`.
