I'm trying to prove
theorem test (n: Nat):
∀ (m : Fin n),
Vector.get (Vector.replicate n 0) m = 0 := by
rw [Vector.get_replicate] -- did not find instance of the pattern in the target expression
but it doesn't find the instance. However the following works fine, even though AFAICT it is the same thing.
theorem test1 (n: Nat) (m : Fin n):
Vector.get (Vector.replicate n 0) m = 0 := by
rw [Vector.get_replicate]
Why does it behave differently? How do I get the first one to compile?

You must start the proof with intro m
in the first one.
