Yeah they're talking about recording the type inferences in the source code. Interesting idea but I feel like it might fall down the same way all "not just text" ideas fall down - the whole coding world is built around plain text. Git, diff, GitHub, IDEs, etc.

Some inferred types in Rust can be pages long. Have fun with those merge conflicts!
