Comment (by clinton):

 @simonpj: I'm not sure if I should put in a separate bug report or if I'm
 completely confused, but when I compile the following:
 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilyDependencies #-}

 type family F x = t | t -> x

 myId :: (F a ~ F b) => a -> b
 myId = id

 main = pure ()
 }}}

 I get the error:

 {{{
 Could not deduce: a ~ b
 from the context: F a ~ F b
 }}}

 Isn't this what ticket #10833 discusses, namely that GHC does not derive
 `a ~ b` from `F a ~ F b`?
