 When showing negative numbers most types emit parentheses in precedence
 level 11 because the result is not atomic:

 {{{#!hs
 GHCi, version 8.7.20181015: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
 Prelude> show (Just (-1 :: Int))
 "Just (-1)"
 Prelude> show (Just (-1 :: Float))
 "Just (-1.0)"
 }}}

 However, the Show instance for Fixed does not

 {{{#!hs
 Prelude> :m Data.Fixed
 Prelude Data.Fixed> show (Just (-1 :: Fixed E2))
 "Just -1.00"
 Prelude Data.Fixed>
 }}}

 I would expect it to, because of consistency and because the result "Just
 -1.00" is ill-typed when seen as an expression.
