Description
The `Foldable`-`Traversable` proposal replaced many monomorphic list functions in the Prelude by more polymorphic variants in terms of the `Foldable` and `Traversable` typeclasses. The details are documented in the Haskell wiki [here](https://wiki.haskell.org/Foldable_Traversable_In_Prelude)
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the Foldable-Traversable proposal in the linked Haskell wiki page and compare it with the revised report. Clarify which report sections should incorporate the proposal and what the accepted final wording should be before making changes.
