Given your newly acquired insights, do you expect that there will be 
ultimately a valid example for higher ranks?
Is there a theoretical limit?
Or a practical one? E.g. it might be too awkward to mentally handle 
higher-rank polymorphism - or maybe there's no real mental difference 
when dealing with higher-ranked polymorphism, I don't know because I 
didn't have to deal with that yet, so I'm curious.

Actually it was interesting.
