Including them might be an idea for the future though, as I suspect more registers available might improve performances (and ARM does that so it's probably possible), but I think that's a trickier change, and I'd like to get the build unbroken.

I don't quite understand your response here. Tag/Payload regs will be allocated by the DFG's register allocator. It will happily use argument registers.
I don't think this makes the code harder to read. All code we write that sets up a call frame must account for this.
