A `DatatypeContext` on a `newtype instance` gets the usual warning it's deprecated. But the decl is accepted -- at GHC 8.10. (It doesn't achieve what the O.P. was asking for -- but then I wouldn't expect it to.) Is this behaviour deliberate, or more of an accident? I'm surprised such a modern feature (datatype families) tolerates such an old/deprecated feature. I suppose this means the two features are orthogonal -- which is kinda a Good Thing (wrt some continuing discussions). AntC
