@puffnfresh @djspiewak what's so bad about local typeclasses?

@MosRobinson @puffnfresh @djspiewak Zero benefit, huge penalty. Any claimed benefit comes by pitting against a limited imagination.

@dibblego @puffnfresh @djspiewak can you point me to any papers on the cost/lack of benefit?

@MosRobinson @puffnfresh @djspiewak No, it's just a well-accepted inductive argument. Bad ideas never believed good are not worth a paper.

@dibblego @MosRobinson @puffnfresh Then gist the argument.

@djspiewak @MosRobinson @puffnfresh It would be more counter-arguments to all the claimed benefits, with acceptance of penalties.

@dibblego you claim with strong wording, & when asked for evidence, reply with more strong wording. "Just think about it" isn't an argument.

@luqui I am not providing an argument. This is twitter. It's a cess pool of nonsense. I just want silly ideas to not cross my desk.
