Flix does not have generic effects, yet it has generic traits.

This hints that effects are not meant to deal with data variability.

Effects are allowing variability of control flow.

Abstracting `try/catch/finally` or `async/await`.

For example, something like "durable workflows" is just a specific effect implementation, code stays the same.
