did @suppress {checkTypes} not work?  i don't think we want to do this, as no
type errors will "break the build" so to speak (they wouldn't return a non-zero
exit code)

I'll enable it in the next CL where I switch to cr.exportPath() and references
to module functions no longer cause compiler error.

maybe we could stand for this, but why can't we just suppress or hack around?

I caught a situation when the suppress declaration didn't work.
