-    A tuple subclass used to transition existing backend implementations towards the use of raw tuples

-    backend arrays that currently expect this metadata to function correctly while
-    maintaining the outward behavior of a regular tuple.

-    This class is particularly useful during the phase where the backend implementations are
-    not yet capable of directly accepting raw tuples without additional context about
-    the indexing type. It ensures that these backends can still correctly interpret and
-    process indexing operations by providing them with the necessary contextual information.
