The fundamental issue is that **quantization is a type-level property**, not just an operational detail. When we strip this information from types and relegate it to operation operands, we lose:

- Compiler reasoning capabilities
- Type safety guarantees
- Optimization opportunities
- Clean abstraction boundaries
