I wish rustc had a way to 'pin' the output of type inference
Would that not be "take the outcome of said type inference, write it into the LHS as a type declaration or into the RHS as a generic parameter", aka make the inferred type permanently declared? We're not totally powerless for addressing the practical implication here, and I don't know how we could have stable yet still implicit type inference across compiler versions unless that type inference logic never changed ever again.
