bold!

For your use-case (presenting a world view where only curried functions
are allowed), the proposal
https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/23
might be useful (but in its current form it has now way of influencing
another module, which you’d probably need to remove boiler-plate code
from the student’s modules).

Greetings,
Joachim
