      As an example of a tricky transformation, consider one that removes all uses of %``%#"#[let x = e1 in e2]#"#%''% by substituting [e1] for [x] in [e2].  We will implement the translation by pairing the %``%#"#compile-time#"#%''% typing environment with a %``%#"#run-time#"#%''% value environment or _substitution_, mapping each variable to a value to be substituted for it.  Such a substitute term may be placed within a program in a position with a larger typing environment than applied at the point where the substitute term was chosen.  To support such context transplantation, we need _lifting_, a standard de Bruijn indices operation.  With dependent typing, lifting corresponds to weakening for typing judgments.

For instance, the constructor [Abs] takes an argument that is a function over the same type family [term] that we are defining.  Inductive definitions of this kind can be used to write non-terminating Gallina programs, which breaks the consistency of Coq's logic.

      To be more cautious, we could prove [Wf] for every term that interests us, threading such proofs through all transformations.  Here is an example exercise of that kind, for [Unlet].
