Comment (by simonmar):

 > Do you think the error message would be better without the partial
 CallStack, or does it seem more like a non-issue?

 We could have a non-callstack version of error, and use that from
 `minimumBy` and other functions in base that call `error`?

 > > I should also mention that I'm working on extending profiling to work
 with GHCi, so people using GHCi will get the benefit of full and detailed
 call stacks without any changes at the source level.

 > Is there a ticket for this?

 I just made one: #11047
