Right. But your reminder provokes me a solution, albiet it's a bit
tilted. Nonetheless I don't see any reason Array#to_hash can't be
defined. After all it is in effect a hash of restricted key (integers).
Even though that does't align with Enumerable#to_h, that's okay.

  class Array
    alias :to_hash :to_h
