`miette::IntoDiagnostic` hides the original error from downcasting methods, which means that it's impossible (in the rare cases where we want one) to get an error _out_ of a `miette::Result` to match on it. `IntoDiagnostic` is mandatory for error types that don't implement `miette::Diagnostic`, which (inherently) includes all of the `std` error types. I could define my own wrapper types for everything I want to match on, but that's a big hassle that just isn't worth it. This has been an open issue for 4 years now, but we haven't really needed to match on inner errors before. Now that we do, it's a dealbreaker. See: zkat/miette#155
