<@U0N6C2Q9F>: the last topic was regarding scala actually getting a “toolchain” target type (i.e. `scala_toolchain=//:scala2_12`) vs continuing to have a version field (i.e. `version="2.12"`)

while it’s tempting to do the former in this change, i don’t know if we have the infrastructure for it yet, so it might be necessary to do the latter

There’s been some discussion too of a Bazel toolchain-like concept. A scala toolchain target type would probably fit with that.

so probably better to defer for now, but will keep in mind when implementing <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/13994>
