-During eager lambda lifting, we lift
-- All local function declarations from instances (motivation: make sure it is cheap to inline them later)
-- Local function declarations that take local instances as parameters (motivation: ensure they are specialized)
+During eager lambda lifting, we inspect declarations that are not inlineable or instances (doing it
+everywhere can accidentally introduce mutual recursion which the compiler cannot handle well at the
+moment). We then lift local function declarations that take local instances as parameters from
+their body to ensure they are specialized.
