-- | The documentation for `unsafeCoerce` firmly warns that it should not be
-- used to coerce between actually different types. But we want to produce
-- selector thunks and we don't want to rely on Generic nonsense inlining away
-- to do so. So ... we use `unsafeCoerce` in an entirely illegitimate way. We
-- use this module to make sure our bogus coercions don't escape and cause
-- trouble in the optimizer. Using `-fno-worker-wrapper` and `NOINLINE` pragmas
-- prevents GHC from producing unfoldings for these hideous functions, so
-- they're quite opaque. However, it still produces demand signatures and arity
-- info, which *tend* to be good to have right. I'm not sure how much they
-- matter in this particular case.
