To the extent that dictionaries contribute to Python function dispatch
overhead, they're "too heavy". Is that better? :-)

I categorically disagree with this statement. As someone who's
conducted large amounts of program profiling, I assert that the
vast majority of bad program performance comes from very
simple decisions which have gone awry due to a lack of the
programmer's understanding of the probable cost of invoking
generally simple pieces of code.
