-; 'type' and 'otype' let us create generic functions that run different code
-; based on what args the caller provides, or what oargs the caller expects.
-;
-; These operations are almost certainly bad ideas; they violate our constraint
-; of easily assembling down to native code. We'll eventually switch to dynamic
-; typing with tagged-values.
+; using tagged-values you can define generic functions that run different code
+; based on the types of their args.
