Hey Kevin,

One thing that the page doesn't include (AFAICT) is a discussion of what you 
have referred to elsewhere on this mailing list as a 'Turing-complete type 
system'. A few minutes of googling hasn't uncovered any decent resources on 
what this actually means - in a way I find relatable, at least. All I found on 
Lambda-the-Ultimate was a suggestion that all this kind of type-system does is 
introduce the halting problem to the compiler[1].

Do you know of any resources that discuss the benefits Scala's Turing-complete 
type system?

Regards,
Graham
