The programmer can have a little modular implicits, as a treat

just kind of a mistake to make me try to make a main course out of the treat imo (as much as I like them)

Moving out of shitposting mode for a sec, my main gripe with typeclasses is that global coherence rarely makes sense for “good” typeclasses, and wrapping everything in a pile of newtypes, calling a function, then unwrapping is a lot of ceremony!
