Hi,
I would expect the function
coerce :: Coercible a b => a -> b
to be safe in the sense of Safe Haskell. However, the Data.Coerce module
is marked “Unsafe”. The coerce function is also available via GHC.Exts
and GHC.Prim. The former module is marked “Unsafe”, but the latter is
(surprisingly) marked “Safe-Inferred”.
What are the reasons behind this?
All the best,
Wolfgang
