re: Don't you want to say that it must be an adjustable array rather
than (or perhaps in addition to) that it must be a fill pointer?
No. It's perfectly acceptable to use VECTOR-PUSH-EXTEND with a non-adjustable
array. It's the error-signalling property of VECTOR-PUSH-EXTEND, as opposed
to the "dropping on the floor" of VECTOR-PUSH, that motivated this proposal.
