Is Using .NET 4.0 Tuples in my C# Code a Poor Design Decision?

Question

With the addition of the Tuple class in .net 4, I have been trying to decide if using them in my design is a bad choice or not. The way I see it, a Tuple can be a shortcut

Answer 1

Tuples are a useless framework feature in .NET 4. I think a great opportunity was missed with C# 4.0. I would have loved to have tuples with named members, so you could access the various fields of a tuple by name instead of Value1, Value2, etc...

It would have required a language (syntax) change, but it would have been very useful.
