Should perhaps be noted that this exists in the lens package as "over both"
and also for up to 9-tuples as "over each".

myself applying arrows to both sides of tuples there too. As a result I
would like to propose the following addition to Control.Arrow: both :: Arrow a => a b c -> a (b, b) (c, c)
both = join (***)
-- or if importing join from Control.Monad is undesirable
both f = f *** f Why not just write "f *** f" I hear you ask? Because when f is not a
trivial expression then you need to either bind it to a new name and use
"newName *** newName" (which I personally dislike, because I'm terrible at
coming up with names) or write "join (***) f" which I don't find a
particularly appealing notation either. Kind regards,
