2025-08-24 I'd like to refine the terminology used. The pattern demonstrated here is most accurately described as "polymorphism over effects, (using Higher-Kinded Types)".

It's important to distinguish this from other related concepts. Although it bears a strong resemblance to the Tagless Final pattern, this approach is distinct, and as a tight (not vendor free) integration with Kyo. Furthermore, please note that it is not "Effect Polymorphism," which is an alternate and less precise phrasing.

Thanks a lot to all of you for the valuable feedback!
