Ah, so this effectively means some of the rewrites are useless since the
specializations make them inapplicable.  We should consider what to do
with that.  I have no clue what would happen if we change the order in
which they run, so maybe just remove rewrite 19 and replace it with your
suggestion?

What do the others think?
