Sometimes easier to avoid a and an entirely.
[Coke] Warning: there are still 36 failing files on that xt/an-grammar.rakutest file, but I figure I'm the only one that runs it regularly. 22:33
the updated test let me also complain about "a unused thing", not just "an thing"
Any feedback on this test welcome. 22:35
