Comment:

 I honestly don't think there's a consistent rule that you shouldn't inline
 any default method implementations. Rather, this is a very particular case
 where inlining a chain of `GHC.Generics`-related instance methods together
 leads to high memory usage, which feels more like a bug than anything.

 My vote is to close this and pursue the discussion in #5642 and #11068,
 where this behavior has been observed before. Feel free to reopen if you
 disagree.
