Comment (by goldfire):

 This behavior is all expected... or, in one case, not unexpected.

 The very first example in the OP is regrettable, but it is "not
 unexpected", as `-XNoTypeInType` rejects such programs on a best-effort
 basis. That one is hard.

 The other examples are all consequences of
 [https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/glasgow_exts.html
 #complete-user-supplied-kind-signatures-and-polymorphic-recursion the CUSK
 rules].

 Proposed solution: allow top-level kind signatures of type-level
 declarations (just like we have top-level type signatures of term-level
 declarations) and deprecate CUSKs. One Of These Days, I will write a ghc-
 proposal for this.
