      Not OP, and these examples are not unreadable, but they are a few steps up from your typical generics.

        Creating basic functionality for the language always leads to unreadable code.

        The C++ version would be much, much worse, and the Lisp version is Lisp.

          Agree. What I linked provides core type support for that library. The pipe one is just a bunch of overloads to support a specific way of handling function composition to appease the TypeScript type checker.

          There are a lot of typing hacks in that library to simulate higher kinded types.
