/**
 * @assertion A type T is more specific than a type S, written T << S, if one
 * of the following conditions is met:
 *  • T is S.
 *  • T is ⊥
 *  • S is dynamic.
 *  • S is a direct supertype of T.
 *  • T is a type parameter and S is the upper bound of T.
 *  • T is a type parameter and S is Object.
 *  • T is of the form I<T1, ..., Tn > and S is of the form I <S1, ..., Sn>
 *    and Ti << Si 1 <= i <= n.
 *  • T and S are both function types, and T << S under the rules of section
 *    (Types/Function Types).
 *  • T is a function type and S is Function.
 *  • T << U and U << S.
 * << is a partial order on types. T is a subtype of S, written T <: S, iff
 * [⊥/Dynamic]T << S.
 * . . .
 * An interface type T may be assigned to a type S, written T <=> S, if either
 * T <: S or S <: T.
 * @description Checks the assignability (both ways) of variables and values
 * that meet the described requirements.
