 /// The idea is to get something simple that we can use to quickly decide if two types could unify,

 ///
-/// A special case here are parameters and projections. Projections can be normalized to
-/// a different type, meaning that `<T as Trait>::Assoc` and `u8` can be unified, even though
-/// their outermost layer is different while parameters like `T` of impls are later replaced
-/// with an inference variable, which then also allows unification with other types.
+/// A special case here are parameters and projections, which are only injective
+/// if they are treated as bound types.
 ///
-/// When using `SimplifyParams::Yes`, we still return a simplified type for params and projections²,
-/// the reasoning for this can be seen at the places doing this.
+/// For example when storing impls based on their simplified self type, we treat
+/// generic parameters as placeholders. We must not simplify them here,
+/// as they can unify with any other type.
 ///
+/// With projections we have to be even more careful, as even when treating them as bound types
+/// this is still only correct if they are fully normalized.
 ///
-/// ¹ meaning that if two outermost layers are different, then the whole types are also different.
-/// ² FIXME(@lcnr): this seems like it can actually end up being unsound with the way it's used during
-///   candidate selection. We do not consider non blanket impls for `<_ as Trait>::Assoc` even
-///   though `_` can be inferred to a concrete type later at which point a concrete impl
-///   could actually apply. After experimenting for about an hour I wasn't able to cause any issues
-///   this way so I am not going to change this until we actually find an issue as I am really
