When dealing with corecursion (infinite streams) you don't care about whether you terminate, but rather, whether the infinite stream is _productive_ meaning it doesn't stop producing values. The prime example of a function that's impossible(?) to prove productive (for all cases) is filter – since it takes a predicate function that decides whether values are returned or not. If you give filter a predicate that always returns false you will never produce any values, hence that wouldn't be productive.
