I don't see the issue, unless you mean the fact that REPL doesn't print paths to types?

Well, I'd like to see it (by it I mean the toString of Type) print:

res0: List[Predef.type] = List(scala.Predef$@3c7a279c)

in this particular case, because List[type] looks kind of incorrect.

This is a pretty picky ticket - I assume you didn't realize it, but this is specific to Predef, not all singleton types. It omits Predef so you don't see types like "Predef.String" all over the place.

scala> List(Set)
res0: List[scala.collection.immutable.Set.type] = List(scala.collection.immutable.Set$@768dbb49)
