I've also been spending a lot of time typing things into the Scala interpreter to figure out how Scala proper treats them. For better or worse, I've actually managed to uncover a fair number of bugs in Scala proper doing this. I've almost reached the point where I treat it as a bit of a game: can I from thinking about the properties of the Scala type system come up with some corner case that will exhibit an unsoundness in the language (a ClassCastException, a NoSuchMethodException, etc.), or at least crash the compiler?
