Comment (by Iceland_jack):

 This is great work thanks!

 For those interested these examples came from
 [https://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/6k86je/constraint_unions_bringing_or_to_the_language_of/djlghz8/
 Edward Kmett's encoding of sums of Constraints]. This may be a milestone,
 since `curryC` / `uncurryC` mean that the "category of entailment" `(:-)`
 is a Cartesian closed `Constraint` category (which means we could get
 [https://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/73lp4m/higherorder_abstract_syntax_for_any/
 HOAS syntax for constraints]?).
