"but it won't give useful information if you don't construct the op inline."

The interesting question here is what constitutes useful information! The
trade-off is breaking an existing public API.

If Shalaka's primary goal is prettier errors in test failures, I'd settle
for the fn body itself as the error message and that could be achieved
without breaking the API.
