Comment:

 Makes a lot of sense, thank you! Some comments:

   * WiredIn results from a ghc-dump-tree printing bug, thanks for noting!

   * The note is very helpful - unfortunately I often only browse the
 haddock, so some source-only comments escape me. I often have the feeling
 that many source comments would be useful haddock comments too.

   * If you didn't explicitly mention it, I would have missed the
 requirement for not having a type signature, based on the note only.
   Maybe "Consider a module M, with this top-level binding [without an
 explicit type signature]", if that is correct?

 Resolving ticket, thank you again for the explanation.
