See https://github.com/Microsoft/visualfsharp/issues/799 type Base(x : int) = member self.X = x static member (~-) (a : Base) = Base(-a.X) static member (+) (a : Base, b : Base) = Base(a.X + b.X) static member Cos(a : Base) = Base(2*a.X) type Derived(x : int) = inherit Base(x) let a = Base(1) let minusa = -a // OK let cosa = cos a // OK let twoa = a + a // OK let b = Derived(1) let minusb = -b // Compile error let cosb = cos b // Compile error let twob = b + b // OK

Marking as approved-in-principle per my comment below We will post an RFC for it in due course. Don Syme, F# Language and Core Library Evolution

This is a reasonable request and we should accommodate this somehow. Unfortunately we will likely only be able to do it by having the user open a new module.
