Topic: Coercion from Subtype to Exists


Tom Kranz (Nov 08 2024 at 16:21):

I'm curious about why https://leanprover-community.github.io/mathlib4_docs/Init/Core.html#Subtype.existsOfSubtype is not incorporated in a coercion. Naïvely, I'd think that it'd be neat if Subtype members were automatically treated as Exists proofs, but I'm wondering if there's a deeper reason for the lack of such a Coe instance.
