        // but there is one exception. When constraints arise from higher-ranked subtyping,
        // we generally prefer to blame the source value,
        // as the "target" in this case tends to be some type annotation that the user gave.
        // Therefore, if we find that the region origin is some instantiation
        // of a higher-ranked region, we start our search from the "source" point
        // rather than the "target", and we also tweak a few other things.
        //
        // An example might be this bit of Rust code:
        //
        // ```rust
        // let x: fn(&'static ()) = |_| {};
        // let y: for<'a> fn(&'a ()) = x;

        // AscribeUserType(x, fn(&'static ())
        // y = x;

        // ```rust
        // !a: 'temp1 // from the `y = x` statement
