Why can't the value type store itself? Explain why this statement is true for all representatives of the value type.

Answer from AI

Value type (value type) stores data directly. If it could store itself, its size would be infinite, as each instance would contain another instance of the same type, and so on. Such a recursive structure is impossible for types that must have a fixed and known size at compile time. This statement is true for all value type representatives (such as Struct, Enum, Tuple), because they all store data by value and must have a defined size.
