Yes, Fixnums are only immdiate numeric.

Possible, regarding implementation.
But in Ruby, there's no overwrap between Fixnums and Bignums (on
purpose), so that
1073741823[2] = 1 # error! Fixnum
1073741824[2] = 1 # ok! Bignum
would be confusing. I think we should introduce BitArray or something
for that purpose.
