+ToDo:
+
+* get rid of getEvTerm?
+
+* Float only CTyEqCans.   kind-incompatible things should be CNonCanonical,
+  so they won't float and generate a duplicate kind-unify message
+
+  Then we can stop disabling floating when there are insolubles,
+  and that will improve mc21 etc
+
+* Note [Do not add duplicate derived isols]
+  This mostly doesn't apply now, except for the fundeps
+
+* inert_funeqs, inert_eqs: keep only the CtEvidence.
+   They are all CFunEqCans, CTyEqCans
+
+* remove/rewrite TcMType Note [Unflattening while zonking]
+
+* Consider individual data tpyes for CFunEqCan etc
