+The type system for SSA tracks the most recent definitions of each
+variable. This technique could be quite interesting in maybe
+implementing better pointer support in Vericert, or different integer
+types in Vericert as well.
+
+To do this, it uses the liveness information for each code point to
+track the current version of the variable that is live at this point.
