 - Autoloads registered as singletons.

+    While ``Variant`` is a valid type specification, it's not an actual type. It
+    only means there's no set type and is equivalent to not having a static type
+    at all. Therefore, inference is not allowed by default for ``Variant``,
+    since it's likely a mistake.
