Audience member observes coercion was step 3 or 4 in the parsing pipeline and asks whether parsing and validation end up forming a cycle: parse → validate → parse → validate. Sutterer agrees — parsing is already validation — and says he already discussed this with Piotr Solnica; his proposed solution is embedding small dry-validation rules or 'dry-coercion' inside parsing steps so they can add errors directly to the result object.
