+Although the definition of @{term"trev"} is quite natural, we will have
+overcome a minor difficulty in convincing Isabelle of is termination.
+It is precisely this difficulty that is the \textit{rasion d'\^etre} of
+this subsection.
+
+Defining @{term"trev"} by \isacommand{recdef} rather than \isacommand{primrec}
+simplifies matters because we are now free to use the recursion equation
+suggested at the end of \S\ref{sec:nested-datatype}:

+text{*
+FIXME: recdef should complain and generate unprovable termination condition!
+
+The point is that the above termination condition is unprovable because it
+ignores some crucial information: the recursive call of @{term"trev"} will
+not involve arbitrary terms but only those in @{term"ts"}. This is expressed
+by theorem \isa{map\_cong}:

+@{thm[display]"map_cong"}
