> ---- and then the magma is
> -- This is used to reify a traversal for 'traverseBia'. It's a somewhat-- bogus 'Functor' and 'Applicative' closely related to 'Magma' from the-- @lens@ package. Valid traversals don't use (<$), (<*), or (*>), so-- we leave them out. We offer all the rest of the Functor and Applicative-- operations to improve performance: we generally want to keep the structure-- as small as possible. We might even consider using RULES to widen lifts-- when we can:----   liftA2 f x y <*> z ==> liftA3 f x y z,---- etc., up to the pointer tagging limit. But we do need to be careful. I don't-- *think* GHC will ever inline the traversal into the go function (because that-- would duplicate work), but if it did, and if different RULES fired for the-- two copies, everything would break horribly.---- Note: if it's necessary for some reason, we *could* relax GADTs to-- ExistentialQuantification by changing the type of One to----   One :: (b -> c) -> a -> Mag a b c---- where the function will always end up being id. But we allocate a *lot*-- of One constructors, so this would definitely be bad for performance.data Mag <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Mag> a <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089846> b <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089845> t <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089844> where  Pure <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Pure> :: t <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090197> -> Mag <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Mag> a <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090196> b <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090195> t <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090197>  Map <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Map> :: (x <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089843> -> t <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090218>) -> Mag <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Mag> a <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090217> b <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090216> x <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089843> -> Mag <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Mag> a <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090217> b <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090216> t <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679090218>  Ap <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Ap> :: Mag <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Mag> a <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089842> b <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089841> (t <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089840> -> u <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089839>) -> Mag <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Mag> a <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089842> b <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089841> t <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089840> -> Mag <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#Mag> a <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089842> b <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089841> u <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/bifunctors-5.5.9/docs/src/Data.Biapplicative.html#local-6989586621679089839>
