Technically that would be something like Haskell's, but I only have surface-level fluency. More to the point would be the most complex stuff I've had reason to do with a type system, which caps at around this generic state machine:

(TL;DR: A type that encodes a state machine (and is generic over the implementation) that allows you to guarantee reaching a terminating state.)

In practice I rather my types looking much plainer, though:
