Description

See #177 or https://clojurians.slack.com/archives/C03A6GE8D32/p1676766935857169

Even if deferecord was involved in both cases it can happen with any incompatible classes combination.

If we could catch it at the ClojureDart level rather than waiting for the Dart compiler to complain it would be a usability gain.

Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #177 and the linked Clojurians Slack discussion for the incompatible-class cases described there. Determine how ClojureDart could report these incompatibilities before the Dart compiler, with completion defined as catching the relevant class combinations at the ClojureDart level.
