I was just hand-waving here about resilient types, which we can’t inline by design, and archetypes where we can’t inline protocol methods because method resolution requires specialization. But yeah, we should be inlining methods on unbound generic nominal types. I updated the doc.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">-Andy</div></body></html>
