// here, we might produce more valid inferences for types, causing us to do more checks and perform more instantiations
// (in addition to the extra stack depth here) which, in turn, can push the already close process over its limit.
// TL;DR: If we ever become generally more memory efficienct (or our resource budget ever increases), we should just
// remove this `allowComplexConstraintInference` flag.
