Topic: An nth_simp_rw tactic would be great

In this situation, I want to replace the outer cexp
with its Taylor series, but not the inner cexp
.
nth_rewrite
is a great tactic, but does not work in this case. simp_rw
replaces both instances of cexp
.
I thus propose the creation of a tactic that rewrites inside binders like simp_rw
, but only rewrites the nth instance like nth_rewrite
.

Provide arguments for cexp
in the simp_rw
, or use conv
.

Implementing nth_simp_rw
would be very awkward, in a way that it isn't for rw
.
