A previous responder showed me that the third argument was wrong. I had 
mistyped the atom. So this is a win for dialyzer.

I'm a little worried if you say dialyzer won't complain unless the 
intersection is empty. I think that it should be silent if the argument type 
is a subset of the contract type, otherwise complain.
