+// Bastion of the Turbofish
+// ------------------------
+// Beware travellers, lest you venture into waters callous and unforgiving,
+// where hope must be abandoned, ere it is cruelly torn from you. For here
+// stands the bastion of the Turbofish: an impenetrable fortress holding
+// unshaking against those who would dare suggest the supererogation of the
+// Turbofish.
+//
+// Once I was young and foolish and had the impudence to imagine that I could
+// shake free from the coils by which that creature had us tightly bound. I
+// dared to suggest that there was a better way: a brighter future, in which
+// Rustaceans both new and old could be rid of that vile beast. But alas! In
+// my foolhardiness my ignorance was unveiled and my dreams were dashed
+// unforgivingly against the rock of syntactic ambiguity.
+//
+// This humble program, small and insignificant though it might seem,
+// demonstrates that to which we had previously cast a blind eye: an ambiguity
+// in permitting generic arguments to be provided without the consent of the
+// Great Turbofish. Should you be so naïve as to try to revolt against its
+// mighty clutches, here shall its wrath be indomitably displayed. This
+// program must pass for all eternity, fundamentally at odds with an impetuous
+// rebellion against the Turbofish.
+//
+// My heart aches in sorrow, for I know I am defeated. Let this be a warning
+// to all those who come after. Here stands the bastion of the Turbofish.
