I'm no great fan of our existing type system, and I'm not opposed to
trying to improve it.  However, I'm a bit wary of the theory that we
can just tweak X, Y, or Z and then everything will go more smoothly
for range types.  I fear that there will be knock-on consequences that
we'll spend a lot of time either (a) arguing about or (b) fixing.
