Comment (by monoidal):

 For the record, here's a smaller test case:

 {{{#!hs
 {-# LANGUAGE AllowAmbiguousTypes #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE ScopedTypeVariables #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeInType #-}
 module SGenerics where

 import Data.Kind (Type)

 type family R :: Type
 data family Sing (z :: R)
 type family PFrom (x :: Type) :: R

 u :: forall (a :: R). Sing a
 u = u

 v :: forall (a :: Type). Sing (PFrom a)
 v = u
 }}}
