I tried fixing this on #15598 and quickly realized there seemed to be an unexpected internal error while executing the following test. Which blocks any further attempt to improve the error reporting on anonymous records :(

Unexpected exception raised in compiler: destAppTy (Failure)

@abonie Does this ring a bell based on #15519 ?

@KevinRansom That sounds suspicious, because #15214 was merged in May, and I can reproduce this problem using .NET SDK 6.0.100 which was released in November 2021 and in .NET SDK 7.0.101.
