Either the same of this feature or always hiding the boxing (e.g. a Python int is actually a wrapper object as well, with some optimizations for some cases like interning) is the case in almost all languages.

I personally use Julia, which does not have such boxing issues. Rust, C, C++, and Fortran also avoid boxing like this. Perhaps Go is also free from such boxing? Python does it, that's true.
