Comment (by simonpj):

 The error is a kind error under a forall type, which gets an implication
 constraint, but with nowhere to put its (value) bindings.  The the
 deferred type error produces a value binding that is then discarded.

 Monoidal, you are brilliant at reducing these examples to their essence.
 Amazing.
