Formal methods are often classified as irrelevant and/or impracticable by practitioners. This is not true: we found and fixed a bug in a piece of software that is used by billions of users every single day. Finding and fixing this bug without a formal analysis and the help of a verification tool is next to impossible, as our analysis showed. It has been around for years in a core library routine of Java and Python. Earlier occurrences of the underlying bug were supposedly fixed, but actually only made its occurrence less likely.

Real Magic.

RealWorld is deeply magical. It is primitive, but it is not unlifted (hence ptrArg). We never manipulate values of type RealWorld; it's only used in the type system, to parameterise State#.
