100101The message suggests to use a context bound instead of a view bound but it would change the signature of the method.
101102It is probably easier and safer to preserve the binary compatibility.
102103To do so the implicit conversion must be declared and called explicitly.

120112## Ambiguous Conversion On ` A ` And ` => A `
121113
122114In Scala 2.13 the implicit conversion on ` A ` wins over the implicit conversion on ` => A ` .
123115It is not the case in Scala 3 anymore, and leads to an ambiguous conversion.
