Comment (by goldfire):

 I do think that would work, but it seems a little unprincipled. And, it
 was a design decision I wasn't prepared to make without discussion.

 My general thought is that we're (in my humble opinion) heading to a
 future where the kind parser and the type parser are no longer distinct,
 because types and kinds will no longer be distinct. What does parsing in
 that world look like? I don't know, but I think we should try to future-
 proof any decision made here.
