Comment (by ncohen):

 I think that it should not be the case because python ints/long are
 smaller and faster than Sage Integers, and that we should not be forced to
 instantiate Integers if we do not need to.

 For the very same reason you invoked, earlier, when you said that you did
 not want rationals because of the possible loss of time.
