typed-function already supports self-reference to just the implementation of a specific signature, and it would not be difficult in the context of a PocomathInstance to extend this to signature-specific reference to any other function. This is an efficiency issue for runtime (reducing the number of type dispatches) and for bundling time (reducing how often adding a method invalidates another function). I can't think of an instance in which this feature is needed for correct operation, but it should be implemented in any case because those efficiency grounds could be fairly significant.
