For some reason, these two functions have different types.
fun1 f (Left x)= Left (f x) fun1 _ r@(Right x) = Right x
fun2 f (Left x) = Left (f x) fun2 _ r = r
Is there a way to rewrite fun2 so that f has type (a->b)?
In the general case, it seems wasteful to have to destruct and construct values just for type checking reasons, especially if your type has many more constructors than (Either a b).
