Constraint solver not working

Same code as #19092 (closed) but where TryUnify is given the kind Bool -> PolyKinded (PolyKinded Constraint) rather than TryUnify :: Bool -> forall k. k -> forall j. j -> Constraint.

type  TryUnify :: Bool -> PolyKinded (PolyKinded Constraint)
class (a === b) ~ cond
   => TryUnify cond a b
instance (a === b) ~ False
      => TryUnify False @k a @j b
instance {-# Incoherent #-}
         ( (a === b) ~ True
         , a ~~ b
         )
      => TryUnify True @k a @j b

Somewhat surprisingly to me, using PolyKinded affects

So what is different, the program compiles with any of these variants:

type  TryUnify :: Bool -> forall k. k -> PolyKinded Constraint

type  TryUnify :: Bool -> forall k. k -> forall j. j -> Constraint

type  TryUnify :: Bool -> PolyKinded (forall j. j -> Constraint) -- -XLiberalTypeSynonyms
