One can hardly say that these two domains differ only in the representation of
their elements.

So, I should have been more precise:

There are categories (like for example UPOLYC), where it makes sense to have
for any two domains A and B of that category

A has CoercibleTo B and B has CoercibleTo A.

However, it seems that this cannot be expressed in SPAD or Aldor.

Somehow, it might be nice to have the possibility to say

with CoercibleTo B where B has SomeCategory
