<div>Hi jesper,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I appreciate your efforts to make universes more flexible and maybe capture other notions of universe than the ones given by size. However, I have another issue with the current mechanism (which I actually proposed many years ago). I don't like that all
definitions are cluttered with these pesky level annotations. When teaching an introductory course I don't really want to talk about levels but on the other hand I would like to use the definitions from the standard library and not my own simplified versions.
However, whenever I show a library definition I have to instruct them to ignore all those levels for the time being.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there a way out of this dilemma? Coq only does fully automatic indexing but there are many situation where this is not what you want. Is there a way to infer levels and automatically add level annotations but be still able to do the explicitly if you
want (or need) to?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>Thorsten</div>
