I much prefer getting told of that it doesn't match a trait than get 600 characters of which the majority is implementation detail of global allocators und from what exactly the string is derived.

Depends on what trait bound error messages you have had yet, I had 1000 lines long already, where it's not obvious at all what is meant (and is often a very simple fix). But I'm sure this will get better over time, there's already a bigger ongoing redesign of the type system solver, so maybe it will be integrated into stable rust soon.
