Comment:

 Reviewing again with Mariusz, we're not convinced the proposed solution is
 sufficiently robust to capture more than the most naive cases. (There are
 just too many ways of writing equivalent constraints.) As such, we're not
 convinced of the value of the check. (Leaning towards a suspicion it would
 actually be unhelpful on balance, which we've seen with other proposed
 system checks at times.) Will close on that basis.

 Possible to revisit if a way of ''reducing'' semantically equivalent
 constraints turns up...
