needed. We use a higher-order accumulation trick to mediate between
left-associative constructor application vs. right-associative binary
operation (e.g., @(:)@). When the query is meant to compute a value
-of type @r@, then the result type withing generic folding is @r -> r@.
+of type @r@, then the result type within generic folding is @r -> r@.
So the result of folding is a function to which we finally pass the
right unit.
