We don’t inline when the dim argument isn’t constant.  As far as I know, 
this is a valid albeit rare use case for the library functions.

Yes, let’s remove what we can.  But the list of candidates is probably 
shorter than you hoped.  TRANSPOSE seems to have been removed already.
SUM, PRODUCT, ANY and ALL must stay (see above).  What else?
