This seems much too weird: *> :set -XDeriveFoldable *> data Foo a = Foo ((a,a),a) deriving Foldable *> length ((1,1),1) 1 *> length $ Foo ((1,1),1) 3
I've opened Trac #13465 [*] for this. As I write there, I think the right thing is to refuse to derive Foldable for a type whose Foldable instance would currently fold over components of a tuple other than the last one. I could go either way on Traversable instances. One could argue that since all relevant components *must* be traversed, we should just go ahead and do that. Or one could argue that we should be consistent with Foldable and refuse to derive it. What do you all think?
