Surely the Haskell type sig is just a subset of the LH spec? Easy! > Would it be possible to talk the desugarer into avoiding auxiliary bindings regardless of the...

Huge thanks to @hasufell. ghcup has become a critical part of Haskell infrastructure in a very short time, which is a testament to both your design expertise and engineering excellence....
