Very interesting comment!

To clarify, as you know CLOS isn’t the CL type system. I was particularly thinking about things like fixnum arithmetic.

The CMUCL and SBCL manual sections on code generation discuss this and it can be verified with DISASSEMBLE.

Missed your reply when it happened. Note that you cannot specialize a method on "fixnum" since it's not a class (though you can on "number" or "integer" since they are classes).
