#  I was given about 10 minutes to figure out an exercise that
#  boiled down to merging named tuples
# 
#  Weird thing to expect someone to know.  Certainly anyone who knows this
#  off the top of their head knows a lot about Python.   But not everyone
#  good developer will know this little corner of Python.
#
#  It took me some time inspecting tuples to come up with this approach, slowed
#  by my discomfort with relying on single-underscore members of library objects
