Simplification: cumulativity information is variance information.
Since cumulativity of an inductive type is the universe constraints which make a term convertible with its universe-renamed copy, the only constraints we can get are between a universe and its copy. As such we do not need to be able to represent arbitrary constraints between universes and copied universes in a double-sized ucontext, instead we can just keep around an array describing whether a bound universe is covariant, invariant or irrelevant (CIC has no contravariant conversion rule). Printing is fairly obtuse and should be improved: when we print the CumulativityInfo we add marks to the universes of the instance: = for invariant, + for covariant and * for irrelevant. ie Record Foo@{i j k} := { foo : Type@{i} -> Type@{j} }. Print Foo. gives Cumulative Record Foo : Type@{max(i+1, j+1)} := Build_Foo { foo : Type@{i} -> Type@{j} } (* =i +j *k |= *)
