 Any type parameter or lifetime parameter of an `impl` must meet at least one of
 the following criteria:
 
- - it appears in the self type of the impl
- - for a trait impl, it appears in the trait reference
- - it is bound as an associated type
+ - it appears in the _implementing type_ of the impl, e.g. `impl<T> Foo<T>`
+ - for a trait impl, it appears in the _implemented trait_, e.g.

+ - it is bound as an associated type, e.g. `impl<T, U> SomeTrait for T
