Aug 31, 2023 at 7:05 comment added Andrej Bauer Is there some confusion going on between having an atomic type $a$ and considering the type $(a \to a) \to (a \to a)$, which is not a useful type to assign to Church numerals (as you've discovered when trying to define arithmetic), and between polymorphic types, such as $\forall a . (a \to a) \to (a \to a)$, which does make Church numerals work well?
