NB.

  • use of Whatever as conventional wrt ex falso-style typing in Data.Empty etc.
  • deliberate (but questionable?) use of name contradiction, avoiding the OP's redundant Bool- prefix (potentially already invoked in any usage context via qualified import Data.Bool as Bool, if needed, to avoid name clash with Relation.Nullary.Negation.Core.contradiction)

Not really to my taste, but offered as a challenge to my own stubbornness on such issues.

I would have bet a large amount of money that this name would cause a lot of clashes with the original contradiction, but I clearly would have lost it all...

@andreasabel 's latest comment on #2847 nudges me towards abandoning this.
As a first (more hesitant) step, I'll just move it to DRAFT... and remove it form the v2.4 milestone.
