The characters `[]` are reserved to potentially combine list notation with merging, allowing the above to be written `[2‿3, 4‿1, 0‿5]`. This would allow non-empty arrays with rank one or more to be written without a primitive, but not rank 0 or empty arrays. Since creating arrays in general would still require primitives like `<` or `⥊`, it's not clear whether this notation is worth it. General array notation is a surprisingly complicated topic; see the article about it [on the APL Wiki](https://aplwiki.com/wiki/Array_notation).
