Modern approach

  1. Introduce a modality \(\StOpn\) to the metatheory
  2. Postulate that for types \(A_0,A_1\) we have \(\StOpn(A_0 = A_1) \cong (A_0 = A_1)\)
  3. Postulate that for a small type \(A\) we have \(\StOpn(\ms{El}\,A) \cong \top\)
  4. Only introduce problematic features at small types
