Comment (by simonpj):

 I think it's this.  `S` is a data constructor with an evidence argument.
 At the term level we pass evidence to `S`.  But if we promote `S` we don't
 have a type-level version of evidence.

 So I was going to say "we don't promote `S`".  But then I remembered that
 `TypeInType` is supposed to allow GADTs at the type level. So now I'm
 confused.
