They do offer the prospect of fixing some annoying bugs for free, by
offloading them to existing, working system infrastructure. For instance,
we can't call C++ code from ghci right now, because ghci's loader doesn't
invoke static initializers that C++ libraries tend to use heavily.

The "save some bytes" argument seems like a red herring, but it's far from
the only thing to pay attention to.
