The “generics manifesto” is a set of ideas that are *heavily* biased by my own
goals for the generics system. They’re not plan-of-record, and some might even
be terrible ideas for Swift. Each thing there still needs to go through the
usual swift-evolution process to get proper design treatment before becoming a
part of the language, and I expect that process to flush out better
ideas/problems with those ideas/unexpected interactions/etc.

Yes.
