That's right, the scrutinizer can't figure out the types. The type of n
for the first scheme#= call is *. The call enforces the type to number.
So the second scheme#= is called with (number fixnum). There's no
specialization for that either.

Wouldn't that kind of assuming lead to hard to debug bugs?

If the scrutinizer could infer types for functions then I think that
would be fine. You'd get a warning somewhere.
