<p>I agree with <a href="https://github.com/sumedhghaisas" class="user-mention">@sumedhghaisas</a> .  I think it is more intuitive to use <code>Right()</code> and <code>Left()</code> in the implementation of the tree's traversers (<code>SingleTreeTraverser</code> and <code>DualTreeTraverser</code>).<br>
But of course, if you prefer, I can update them to use <code>Child(0)</code> and <code>Child(1)</code>.</p>
