I disagree, I think for/union is a natural analogue for for/product
and for/sum. Both for/union and for/set should be in the set library.

I found that I use for/union often enough that it's worth writing a
for/union macro instead of rewriting the same for/fold boilerplate
code every time. However, I'm not sure that I understand what you're
suggesting here.
