```scala mdoc
Foldable[LazyList].foldRight(allFalse, Eval.True)((a,b) => if (a) b else Eval.False).value
```

Unfortunately, since `foldRight` is defined on many collections - this
extension clashes with the operation defined in `Foldable`.
To get past this and make sure you're getting the lazy `foldRight` defined
in `Foldable`, there's an alias `foldr`:

```scala mdoc
allFalse.foldr(Eval.True)((a,b) => if (a) b else Eval.False).value
```
