Re: Partition with Either on Traversable

Perhaps.  However when mapping a bitset into typed partitions, this method has the advantage of preserving the bitset type, if possible.

You are correct that a Traversable[Either[A, B]] may be an easier starting point for this method.  In fact, take a view of a collection and applying the map to an either would probably give you similar execution times , there is still the matter of preserving types...

Such a list is better represented List[Either[Int, String]]. I suspect
