Looks like an OCaml bug?

So, we have exception definitions that use inline records? Was someone really concerned about the cost of OCaml exceptions?

view this post on Zulip Gaëtan Gilbert (Oct 08 2021 at 12:59):

inline records aren't about cost, they're about being able to give names to the fields without having to do some

type contents_of_foo = ...
... of contents_of_foo

boilerplate

Bah, it's not useful for exceptions since most of the time there is only one single client destructing the record, i.e. the printer
