The only reason you require `OpCast` derivatives such as `OpAuxInt` is when using upper-bounds. Because the default `.Out` is not upper-bounded and if you wish to feed it to an...

It shouldn't be ToString, but `GetNameOfSym`. I think it's ok to add. But maybe another way is better- the way string interpolation is currently done inside the implicitNotFound message. We...

No. What I mean is that message string inside it will support "${sym}"

The same way `RequireMsg` is determines what symbol to apply the `implicitNotFound` annotation on. Actually, I haven't tried it, but I wouldn't be surprised if it works as-is.

Yes, apparently it works: ```scala trait Foo[T] object Foo { implicit def ev[T](implicit r : RequireMsg[false, "Bad Type: ${T}"]) : Foo[T] = ??? } implicitly[Foo[Int]] //error: Bad Type: Int ```

I think it's maybe better to add the dependent type interpolation support in the compiler itself. I propose opening a thread on contributors.scala-lang.org to discuss this further.

I'm not sure if you thought about the type system when a method application is split to blocks. Before this SIP type arguments are inferred as `Nothing` because they all...
