[Hs-Generics] patch applied (generics): Writing CrushRight that literally mimics the corresponding code in RepLib, EMGM, etc. I shall argue that requiring such a literal reproduction is like shootout requiring Haskell code be written in the same style as ML or C code, or vice versa. Each language has its idioms and style, even if the the solutions are extensionally the same.
