npub1jd874v63430gng67kpw5m597f34dr9vr0yhkp8dkmnma8208rayscvt4jc (npub1jd8…t4jc) I am actually very happy with HoTT/UF that is not obliged to compute "directly". I like high-level thinking, both when I think about computation and when I think about mathematics.
As I said, if I want to compute, I can "plug" cubical type theory inputs to my programs.
I think it is misguided to insist that a foundation of constructive mathematics has to "compute directly". I like abstractions. They make my life less painful.
