I'm happy to accept this proposal. B > A > C > D. As you'll see on the GitHub thread https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/668#issuecomment-2724063..., I have convinced myself that (C), allowing keywords in traditional record syntax, is untenable. And I really don't think we should reject (D). I'm favouring (B) over (A) for simple consistency reasons; the fewer exceptions the better. Plus at least one person has said the extra generality would be useful. Simon
