-- There are tow arrows with force the partial evaluation. By convention
-- the 2. should be less lazy than the 1.
--
-- These arrows are sometimes useful for preventing space leaks, especially when parsing
-- complex data structures. In many cases the evaluated AST is more space efficient
-- than the unevaluaded with a lot of closures.
