+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+

+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

+                @[Fin n] -> [Int]@.  This primarily comes into play when using newtypes to

+-- | @Attenuation a b@ is a unidirectional 'Coercion' from @a@ to @b@.
+--
+-- "Attenuate: reduce the force, effect, or value of."  An @Attenuation@ takes
+-- a stronger, stricter type to a weaker, more lax type.  It's meant to sound a
+-- bit like 'Coercion', while conveying that it weakens the type of its
+-- argument.
+--
+-- This arises from newtypes that impose additional invariants on their
+-- representations: if we define @Fin :: Nat -> Type@ as a newtype over 'Int',
+-- such as in <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/fin-int fin-int>, then it's
+-- safe to 'coerce' @Fin@s to 'Int's, and @Fin@s to other @Fin@s with larger
+-- @Nat@ parameters, but not vice versa.
+--
+-- Within the module defining this @Fin@ type, we can obtain 'Coercible'
+-- between any two @Fin@ types regardless of their roles, because their newtype
+-- constructors are in scope, but if we've taken appropriate precautions
+-- (namely not exporting the constructor), we can't obtain it outside the
+-- module.  We can relax this and make the coercion "opt-in" by exporting it in
+-- the form of a 'Coercion' with a scary name like @unsafeCoFin@, but this is
+-- still error-prone.
+--
+-- Instead, we introduce a newtype wrapper around 'Coercion' which restricts it
+-- to be used only in the forward direction, and carefully design its API so
+-- that it can only be obtained under the appropriate circumstances.
+--
+-- @Attenuation a b@ can be seen as a witness that @a@ is, semantically and
+-- representationally, a subtype of @b@: that is, any runtime object that
+-- inhabits @a@ also inhabits @b@ without any conversion.  Note, however, that
+-- we can't have a useful typeclass of this subtyping relation because all of
+-- its instances would have to be specified individually: whereas 'Coercible'
+-- is willing to invert or compose coercions implicitly because of GHC magic, a
+-- subtyping class would not have that affordance.

+-- | Lift an 'Attenuation' covariantly over a type constructor @f@.
+--
+-- Although we don't /use/ the 'Functor' constraint, it serves an important
+-- purpose: to guarantee that the type parameter @a@ doesn't appear
+-- contravariantly in @f a@; otherwise it'd be impossible to write a 'Functor'
+-- instance.  This is used as a standin for more-detailed "covariant" and
+-- "contravariant" type roles, which GHC doesn't have because there's no
+-- built-in notion of subtyping to use them with.  'Representational1' provides
+-- the actual lifting of coercions, and 'Functor' guarantees we've got the

+
+-- | Lift an 'Attenuation' covariantly over the left of a 'Bifunctor'.
+--
+-- Like with 'co' and 'contra', we require a not-actually-used constraint as
+-- proof that the type has the appropriate variance.  Since there's not a
+-- commonly-used class for functors over the last-but-one parameter, we use
+-- 'Bifunctor'.  Sadly, this rules out types which are covariant in parameter
+-- -1 and contravariant in parameter -0.

+--

+
+-- | Lift an 'Attenuation' covariantly over the left of a 'Profunctor'.
