Yes. However, in the far future (say three years from now ;-), it may be
possible for the compiler to analyze the program and some profile data,
find out where non-uniform cell sizes are limiting reuse, and automatically
modify its internal type definitions to *make* the cell sizes uniform
(on at least some of the function symbols in the type) if doing so would
gain more than it loses.
