Refactored [_] generics

These are (currently) no longer supported by nim devel.
For reference, see:
- nim-lang/Nim#21435
- nim-lang/Nim#21192

It is likely that this behaviour will stay.
Either way, there is no particular need to stick with [_],
thus we shall proactively remove it, just to be safe.
