text: """Facilities and constants for generating error messages during type checking.
  
  Don't add any non-trivial message construction logic to the type
  checker, as it can compromise clarity and make messages less
  consistent. Add such logic to this module instead. Literal messages used
  in multiple places should also be defined as constants in this module so
  they won't get out of sync.
  
  Historically we tried to avoid all message string literals in the type
  checker but we are moving away from this convention.
