it's a bit unclear - is reduce *only* available for standalone?

no but right now it's underpowered -- do you have opinions ? Would an associative reduce that did a tree aggregate be more usefl?

tl;dr though is yes: you can get a really long way with just associative & commutative reduce ops. Worth special casing.

in particular the most important pattern IMO is: map input into some commutative semigroup; reduce; map to the actual result
