You're right, let's try both and see what how worse is one comparing
to another wrt bloat-o-meter and overall code generation. If the
difference is not that terrible, I'd stick to universal and simpler
for users version.

If the difference is significant, we'd have to keep both. Maybe it's
worth to try merge the aligned case into generic one, but it's not the
purpose of your series, of course.

Thanks,
Yury
