Error messages will be displayed for incorrect type arguments. If the indexer is not a property in the indexee,
```lua
type age = index<Person, "ager"> -- Error message: Property 'ager' does not exist on type 'Person'.
type age = index<Person, "ager"> -- Error message: Property '"ager"' does not exist on type 'Person'
```
If the indexer is not a type,
```lua
local key = "age"
type age = index<Person, key> -- Error message: Type 'key' cannot be used as an index type.
type age = index<Person, key> -- Error message: Second argument to index<Person,_> is not a valid index type; Unknown type 'key'
```
Note: these errors will be part of the general type family reduction errors since `index` will be built into the type family system.

In the circumstance that the indexee is a type class or table with an `__index` metamethod, `index` will *only* invoke `__index` if indexer is not found within the current scope.
