+Explanation: You can ❰merge❱ the alternatives of a union using a record with one
+handler per alternative, like this:
+
+
+ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+ │ let union = < Left = +2 | Right : Bool > │
+ │ in let handlers = { Left = Natural/even, Right = λ(x : Bool) → x } │
+ │ in merge handlers union : Bool │
+ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+
+
+... as long as the input type of each handler function matches the type of the
+corresponding alternative:
+
+
+ ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+ │ union : < Left : Natural | Right : Bool > │
+ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+ ⇧ ⇧
+ These must match These must match
+ ⇩ ⇩
+ ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+ │ handlers : { Left : Natural → Bool, Right : Bool → Bool } │
+ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+
+
+For example, the following expression is $_NOT valid:
+
+
+ Invalid: Doesn't match the type of the ❰Right❱ alternative
+ ⇩
+ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+ │ let handlers = { Left = Natural/even | Right = λ(x : Text) → x } │
+ │ in let union = < Left = +2 | Right : Bool > │
+ │ in merge handlers union : Bool │
+ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+
+
+Your handler for the following alternative:
+
+↳ $txt0
+
+... needs to accept an input value of type:
+
+↳ $txt1
+
+... but actually accepts an input value of a different type:
+
+↳ $txt2
