Gone are the days of writing a loop to find anything in an array. How did I not know about this before?

table.pack is listed as returning Variant, even though it should only return table.

table.find is listed as returning Variant, even though it should be listed as returning int (and returning nil when needle isn’t found).

That’s not necessarily an accurate representation of table.create. It doesn’t specify that it pre-allocates the table or that the second argument is optional. I realize that the internals of Lua tables may be beyond the scope of the developer hub, but mentioning it for power users (which is why the function was added) should be a priority.
