Topic: rcases and equations à la `inl x = inl y`


Jakob von Raumer (Feb 12 2024 at 14:54):

Is there a reason that cases can handle targets like inl x = inl y while rcases can't? Would be cool to be able to use a rfl pattern on such equations too, even if it involves a congr application behind the scenes

you should use the \<\> pattern on that equation

rfl means to use subst, which has slightly different behavior from cases
