I guess you could use it to implement an algebra that allows you to build dependent types, but that would be unfit for practical uses.

As a case in point, Haskell has first-class experience for HKTs, and dependent types implementation in haskell is getting hindered by the limits of the language.

For anybody interested in the details, here is the last report of the ongoing implementation of dependent types in GHC: https://discourse.haskell.org/t/ghc-dh-weekly-update-6-2023-...
