Instead rely\non the default.\n\n\"inlined\"\nUnlike Type::Tiny, you *cannot* pass an inlining coderef to the constructor. Instead rely on\nthe default.\n\n\"parent\"\nUnlike Type::Tiny, you *cannot* pass an inlining coderef to the constructor. A parent will\ninstead be automatically calculated.\n\n\"coercion\"\nYou probably do not pass this to the constructor. (It's not currently disallowed, as there\nmay be a use for it that I haven't thought of.)\n\nThe auto-generated default will be a Type::Coercion::Union object.\n"
