AIUI this was a workaround for getting the value of N from an AttributedType, because this only has `getAttrKind` to return the attribute kind, but no way to get the corresponding argument/value. This seemed like a simple way to do that without having to create a new subclass for Type and having to support that in various places. Is the latter the approach you were thinking of? (or is there perhaps a simpler way?)
