Comment (by Iceland_jack):

 This can additionally be witnessed by carrying the witness and composing
 it explicitly

 {{{#!hs
 type Cat ob = ob -> ob -> Type

 data ImpliesC :: Cat Constraint where
   ImpliesC :: (a => b) => ImpliesC a b

 data IsoC :: Cat Constraint where
   IsoC :: ImpliesC a b -> ImpliesC b a -> IsoC a b

 instance Category ImpliesC where
   id :: ImpliesC a a
   id = ImpliesC

   (.) :: ImpliesC b c -> ImpliesC a b -> ImpliesC a c
   ImpliesC . ImpliesC = ImpliesC

 instance Category IsoC where
   id :: IsoC a a
   id = IsoC id id

   (.) :: IsoC b c -> IsoC a b -> IsoC a c
   IsoC bc cb . IsoC ab ba = IsoC (bc . ab) (ba . cb)
 }}}

 `IsoC` can be parameterised by the category `IsoC :: Cat ob -> Cat ob`.
