I don't think that's addressing my underlying concern: anything that isn't named "vectorElementTypeInterface" or something like this should be a separate PR that we can reason about on its own merits.

The fundamental problem here is that there is nothing special about pointers for vector element types from a builtin type point of view, I don't quite see a workaround to this right now TBH.
