`u === 0`, `u !== true` and `Object.is(u, x)` against a scalar arm tested
the union's tag inline but read its payload through scr_union_get_f64 or
scr_union_get_bool. The call passed the union's stack box to the runtime,
so LLVM could not promote the box to registers, and an element read of a
`number[]` compared with a number kept its value, tag and box in memory.
The comparison now loads the payload slot directly, as other union
extractions already do, and the box no longer escapes.
