A return lifetime compares extent sizes instead of point containment · case 03

A return lifetime compares extent sizes instead of point containment.

Member previewVariant 3 · 3 implementations · 21 checks per implementation

Case contract

Check borrowed function signature well-formedness: lifetime parameters unique; all occurrences declared or static; output elision needs exactly one input lifetime; receiver elision uses receiver lifetime; every output source is an input; by-reference return cannot originate in a local; returned mutable borrow requires mutable input; output extent must fit source extent; bound lifetime cannot escape binder depth; unused lifetime parameters rejected in this toy language. Input is a fully explicit descriptor of the stated toy IR. Return rule identifiers in declaration order; absent optional obligations use the provided neutral defaults. No rule is an assertion about a production language.

Why this case matters

A finite offline static-analysis model of ownership and borrowing; it does not execute the analyzed program.
