+// `std::ops::Index` has an `: ?Sized` bound on the `Idx` type param. This is
+// an accidental left-over from the times when it `Index` was by-reference.
+// Tightening the bound now could be a breaking change. Although no crater
+// regression were observed (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/59527),
+// let's be conservative and just add a test for this.
