Topic: auto trigger slim_check

I have an idea of new feature of ‘sorry’

slim_check is a good way to check if proposition can be true. But we often forget to run slim_check.
So it could be good to run slim_check automatically when we write sorry.

How about do you think?

It's a good idea, but also not a new one. :-)

There are a lot of user interface questions around it. It's potentially quite expensive, and users won't always want "active sorries".

Kim Morrison (Oct 25 2024 at 06:30):

Some of theorem proving languages already do this (I forget which?)

Kim Morrison (Oct 25 2024 at 06:30):

You might alternatively triggering things like this even without a sorry, but e.g. whenever there is an error about an unsolved goal.
