However, for ergonomic reasons, a very restricted secondary inference algorithm called
“lifetime elision” does apply when judging lifetimes. Lifetime elision is concerned solely to infer
“lifetime elision” does apply when judging lifetimes. Lifetime elision is concerned solely with inferring
lifetime parameters using three easily memorizable and unambiguous rules. This means lifetime elision
acts as a shorthand for writing an item signature, while not hiding
