 +Issues when encoding into SAT:
 +  * detecting sharing to minimizing size of propositional formula
 +  * symmetry breaking - larger formula with fewer instances
 +  * sort inference - smaller range of variables
 +  * incremental search for different sizes of the domain - reusing work in SAT solver
