+Explanation: Every record literal is a set of fields assigned to values, like
+this:
+
+ ┌────────────────────────────────────────┐
+ │ { foo = 100, bar = True, baz = "ABC" } │
+ └────────────────────────────────────────┘
+
+However, fields can only be terms and cannot be types or kinds
+
+For example, these record literals are $_NOT valid:
+
+
+ ┌───────────────────────────┐
+ │ { foo = 100, bar = Text } │
+ └───────────────────────────┘
+ ⇧
+ ❰Text❱ is a type and not a term
+
+
+ ┌───────────────────────────┐
+ │ { foo = 100, bar = Type } │
+ └───────────────────────────┘
+ ⇧
+ ❰Type❱ is a kind and not a term
+
+
+You provided a record literal with a key named:
+
+↳ $txt0
+
+... whose value is:
+
+↳ $txt1
+
+... which is not a term
