-To encode \roll{} into \roll*{} we require a function that traverses a
-value of type \(\sub{A}{X/\mu X. A}\) and collects all inductive

-value and return the index of that value with the function

-defined by \(\mathsf{extend}~a~t = \tuple{\mathsf{cons}~a~t,
-  \mathsf{length}~t}\). By using the \mapkw{} pseudo-operator we can
-replace all inductive components in a vessel \(\sub{A}{X/\mu X. A}\)
-with accumulator functions \(\sub{A}{X/\mathsf{List}~(\mu X. A) \to
-  \mathsf{List}~(\mu X. A) \times \nat}\). The non-trivial step is
-``distributing'' the accumulator with the substitution to obtain a
-value of type \(\mathsf{List}~(\mu X. A) \to \mathsf{List}~(\mu X. A) \times
-\sub{A}{X/\nat}\). We can apply this function to the empty list to
-obtain the arguments for \roll*{}.

+The \mapkw{} replaces each inductive component \(\mu X. A\) with an
+accumulator \(\mathsf{List}~(\mu X. A) \to \mathsf{List}~(\mu X. A) \times
+\nat\), which extends a list with the component and records the
+component's index in the list. We then ``distribute'' the accumulator
+over the vessel using the \(\mathsf{distrib}\) meta-operator. We finally
