Comment (by adamse):

 But if

 > TH is supposed to reflect source code

 it is clear to the user of TH that the GHC could do more things to the
 code. I think this is true: a datatype will always be *at least* as strict
 and unpacked as `HsSrcBangs`/reification says.

 (relatedly I wonder if I can get GHC to tell me what
 strictness/unpackedness is ultimately choosen, as a debugging tool)
