Research direction

Start by reviewing the duplicated issue in bos/text-format#14 and the linked Reddit discussion to understand the proposed Buildable type class and its intended ownership. The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point; done would require a decided migration plan for moving the class into the text library.
