+Note [Indexed data types] (aka data type families)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ See also Note [Wrappers for data instance tycons] in MkId.lhs
+
+Consider
+ data family T a
+
+ data instance T (b,c) where
+ T1 :: b -> c -> T (b,c)
+
+Then
+ * T is the "family TyCon"
+
+ * We make "representation TyCon" :R1T, thus:
+ data :R1T b c where
+ T1 :: forall b c. b -> c -> :R1T b c
+
+ * It has a top-level coercion connecting it to the family TyCon
+
+ axiom :Co:R1T b c : T (b,c) ~ :R1T b c
+
+ * The data contructor T1 has a wrapper (which is what the source-level
+ "T1" invokes):
+
+ $WT1 :: forall b c. b -> c -> T (b,c)
+ $WT1 b c (x::b) (y::c) = T1 b c x y `cast` sym (:Co:R1T b c)
+
+ * The representation TyCon :R1T has an AlgTyConParent of
+
+ FamilyTyCon T [(b,c)] :Co:R1T
