  // in the new scheme of things ClassManifests are aliased to ClassTags
  // this is done because we want `toArray` in collections work with ClassTags
  // but changing it to use the ClassTag context bound without aliasing ClassManifest
  // will break everyone who subclasses and overrides `toArray`
  // luckily for us, aliasing doesn't hamper backward compatibility, so it's ideal in this situation
  // I wish we could do the same for Manifests and TypeTags though

  // note, by the way, that we don't touch ClassManifest the object
  // because its Byte, Short and so on factory fields are incompatible with ClassTag's

  /** A `ClassManifest[T]` is an opaque descriptor for type `T`.
   *  It is used by the compiler to preserve information necessary
   *  for instantiating `Arrays` in those cases where the element type
   *  is unknown at compile time.
   *
   *  The type-relation operators make an effort to present a more accurate
   *  picture than can be realized with erased types, but they should not be
   *  relied upon to give correct answers. In particular they are likely to
   *  be wrong when variance is involved or when a subtype has a different
   *  number of type arguments than a supertype.
