When using Either: Is there an easier way to fall back to another Either if the first one is Left? I have this

val either1 = Either.catch { ... /* some logic here*/ }
        val either2 = Either.catch { ... /* some fallback logic here*/ }
        val either = if (either1.isRight()) either1 else either2

I thought there would be a function to chain the eithers somehow...

either1.recover { either2.bind() }

that's it! thx!! .bind somehow fails to show in IntelliJ code completion...

It's an extension defined inside Raise, but I would expect it to still show up. That's strange. Might be something solved in K2
