polymorphic-functions
A function type to dispatch on types instead of classes with partial support for dispatching on optional and keyword argument types. (by digikar99)

The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Common Lisp polymorphic stories.
And, there won't be a way to properly understand what exactly PF (or CL) misses without immersing myself into a ML-style something, is there? As in, I get some parts of what you are saying; I myself had to (ab)use deftype and gensym intern for another library for providing (limited) parametric types; but I also fail to see something seriously wrong with it, given that it plays nicely with cl:declare, cl:typep and cl:subtypep for the primitive use case of single value type checking, declaration and with some additional things (compiler)macro based optimization.

Adding new types and operators to Lisp
If performance is a concern, then you would want to stick to CLHS provided simple-array and create appropriate types using deftype, and then dispatch on the types either by yourself, or by using something like polymorphic-functions and polymorph.maths.

defgeneric and &rest
If you want to dispatch on vectors, you can try out polymorphic-functions which was made for the express purpose of dispatching on specialized arrays aka types rather than classes.

numericals - Performance of NumPy with the goodness of Common Lisp
Since the past year or two, I have been working on numericals that aims to provide the speed of NumPy with the goodness of Common Lisp. In particular, this includes the use of dynamic variables, restarts, and compiler-notes wherever appropriate. It uses CLTL2 API (and may be slightly more) under the hood to provide AOT dispatch, but nothing stops you from combining it with JAOT dispatch provided by numcl/specialized-function. This also spawned a number of projects most notably polymorphic-functions to dispatch on types instead of classes and extensible-compound-types that allows one to define user defined compound types (beyond just the type-aliases enabled by deftype. Fortunately enough, interoperation between magicl, numcl and numericals/dense-numericals actually looks plausible!

polymorphic-functions - Possibly AOT dispatch on argument types with support for optional and keyword argument dispatch
What I am calling parametric polymorphism is this test:
What are some alternatives?
When comparing abstract-arrays and polymorphic-functions you can also consider the following projects:
ccl - Clozure Common Lisp
lisp-interface-library - LIL: abstract interfaces and supporting concrete data-structures in Common Lisp
fast-generic-functions - Seal your generic functions for an extra boost in performance.
cl-parametric-types - (BETA) C++-style templates for Common Lisp
ctype - CL type system implementation
numericals - CFFI enabled SIMD powered simple-math numerical operations on arrays for Common Lisp [still experimental]
cffi - The Common Foreign Function Interface
generic-cl - Generic function interface to standard Common Lisp functions
coalton - Coalton is an efficient, statically typed functional programming language that supercharges Common Lisp.
dense-arrays - Numpy like array object for common lisp
