Implementing a simple lookup matrix

I have a precomputed (=handwritten) simple matrix that I want to use in my code. I have currently written it as follows (without a type):

let conversion_matrices = [
    #LEFT
    [[[0,0], [0,1], [0,2], [0,3]],
    [[1,0], [1,1], [1,2], [1,3]],
    [[2,0], [2,1], [2,2], [2,3]],
    [[3,0], [3,1], [3,2], [3,3]]],
    #RIGHT
    [[[0,3], [0,2], [0,1], [0,0]],
    [[1,3], [1,2], [1,1], [1,0]],
    [[2,3], [2,2], [2,1], [2,0]],
    [[3,3], [3,2], [3,1], [3,0]]],
    #UP
    [[[3,0], [2,0], [1,0], [0,0]],
    [[3,1], [2,1], [1,1], [0,1]],
    [[3,2], [2,2], [1,2], [0,2]],
    [[3,3], [2,3], [1,3], [0,3]]],
    #DOWN
    [[[0,0], [1,0], [2,0], [3,0]],
    [[0,1], [1,1], [2,1], [3,1]],
    [[0,2], [1,2], [2,2], [3,2]],
    [[0,3], [1,3], [2,3], [3,3]]]
]

let conversion_matrices = [
    #LEFT
    [[[0,0], [0,1], [0,2], [0,3]],
    [[1,0], [1,1], [1,2], [1,3]],
    [[2,0], [2,1], [2,2], [2,3]],
    [[3,0], [3,1], [3,2], [3,3]]],
    #RIGHT
    [[[0,3], [0,2], [0,1], [0,0]],
    [[1,3], [1,2], [1,1], [1,0]],
    [[2,3], [2,2], [2,1], [2,0]],
    [[3,3], [3,2], [3,1], [3,0]]],
    #UP
    [[[3,0], [2,0], [1,0], [0,0]],
    [[3,1], [2,1], [1,1], [0,1]],
    [[3,2], [2,2], [1,2], [0,2]],
    [[3,3], [2,3], [1,3], [0,3]]],
    #DOWN
    [[[0,0], [1,0], [2,0], [3,0]],
    [[0,1], [1,1], [2,1], [3,1]],
    [[0,2], [1,2], [2,2], [3,2]],
    [[0,3], [1,3], [2,3], [3,3]]]
]

The envisioned example use of this would be something like this:

let conversion_matrix = conversion_matrices[direction]
for row in range(4):
  for column in range(4):
    let something_x = conversion_matrix[row][column][0]
    let something_y = conversion_matrix[row][column][1]

let conversion_matrix = conversion_matrices[direction]
for row in range(4):
  for column in range(4):
    let something_x = conversion_matrix[row][column][0]
    let something_y = conversion_matrix[row][column][1]

The original

conversion_matrices

conversion_matrices

becomes a

ListLiteral

ListLiteral

, which seems clearly unusable for this usecase given its lack of getitem implementation.
I believe using a

StaticTuple

StaticTuple

should probably work, but would require explicitly initializing the tuple for each nested tuple, explicitly listing the nested types repeatedly for every individual tuple. This is probably what I will fall back on if I find nothing else, but I wonder if there is a proper way to do this that doesn't lead to huge chunks of nested and repeated type definitions.

I don't have a lot of experience writing python code, so this might not even be a mojo specific question. In any case, I would be very thankful for a pointer in the right direction.
