 {{{#!hs

 module BadError where

 foo :: Int
 foo = doesNotExist @123

 {-
 [1 of 1] Compiling BadError         ( BadError.hs, BadError.o )

 BadError.hs:6:7: error:
     • Cannot apply expression of type ‘t1’
       to a visible type argument ‘123’
     • In the expression: doesNotExist @123
       In an equation for ‘foo’: foo = doesNotExist @123
   |
 6 | foo = doesNotExist @123
 -}
 }}}

 What I would expect is for it to say that {{{doesNotExist}}} is not bound
 as one might reasonably expect. This is very, very confusing and easy to
 hit in real life. If you are exposing a function {{{f}}}, using it
 somewhere with {{{f @123}}} but then later decide to remove or rename
 {{{f}}}, the error message doesn't suggest at all that {{{f}}} has
 disappeared and leaves the user scratching their head.
