Implementing coercions through instances in Agda
-- An attempt to implement implicit coercions via Agda's instance
-- argument resolution. The basic principle works, but Agda's
-- instance resolution is a bit too weak to scale it to big examples
-- because it is hard to implement chains of coercions.
-- Doesn't help: {-# OPTIONS --overlapping-instances #-}
