 This definition guarantees that for any type $T$,

+\code{$T <:$ FutureOr<$\flatten{T}$>}.
+Note that when $X$ is a type variable with bound $B$,
+it is possible that \flatten{X} is different from $X$:
+$B$ could, for some $S$, be \code{FutureOr<$S$>},
+or a type variable $Y$ with bound \code{FutureOr<$S$>},
+or a class $C$ that implements \code{Future<$S$>},
+or a type variable $X$ with bound $C$.%
