But what of a collection of integers, or any other generic type for that matter? Places where you simply can't use a primitive.

This is where the most pain is felt. Micro-optimising a single integer addition is silly, but when you have 10,000 of them... and no, arrays are NOT the answer.

I agree... but when you write a language, be it dynamic or not, every single operation may hurt, since the user is doing the version that uses thousands of them.
