Comment (by LeanderK):
You are right, the issue mostly stems from the fact (I think? At least
that is the most common problem where it all breaks down) that I can't
convince the typechecker that things defined by induction (through 0 and
(n+1)) are valid and hold for every n.
I have no idea what the best technical solution would be. I am just a
user. Here's a related issue: https://github.com/clash-lang/ghc-typelits-
natnormalise/issues/13, which is very similar to the usual pains when I
use type-level nats.
