Why should it be slow??? All (at least most) of the action should be at the
compile stage. That is when the checking is done. The generated code should run
as usual.
All that happens is that there should be fewer run-time errors to discover
since the universe describe all the legal operatons with the various datatypes.
If you try to multiply velocities the compiler will tell you that it is not
legal.
