Discussion:

In N4778, 22.3.4 [pair.astuple], 22.6.4 [variant.helper], and 24.3.7.7 [array.tuple], are partly specified via a fictitious descriptive element Value: Moreover, 99 [span.tuple] is on track to do likewise in the near future.

Let's invent such a Value: element and properly document it within 16.3.2.4 [structure.specifications], or else let's respecify the offending uses.
