[Haskell-cafe] Possibly an error in Tutorial?

In this line:

For example, the principal type of `head` is `[a]->a`; `[b]->a`, `a->a`, or even `a` are correct types, but too general, whereas something like `[Integer]->Integer` is too specific.

— It is not clear how `a → a` can be a correct type for `head`, insofar as all occurrences of a type variable must be instantiated to the same concrete type. If this sentence is actually correct, perhaps it could be clarified to address the issue?
