What is the s?

The s essentially represents the context, and is like the s of ST.

It's used to distinguish between closed and open terms:

  • Closed term: type ClosedTerm = forall s. Term s a
  • Arbitrary term: exists s. Term s a
  • NB: (exists s. Term s a) -> b is isomorphic to
  • forall s. Term s a -> b
