Comment (by simonpj):

 Maybe.  In the future I'm not sure we'll distinguish between kind and type
 arguments.  I think a better solution would be for `typeRepArgs` to return
 the kind ''and'' type arguments.

 In any case I mostly think you shouldn't be decomposing `TypeRep` at all.
 Are you?  What's your use-case?
