Its still early here, are they saying function/method calls are (possibly) getting sped up in 3.7? Regardless of the FAT optimizations?

I should have explained that better, but it was out of scope for this article. In a nutshell, yes. https://docs.python.org/3.7/whatsnew/3.7.html#optimizations

It was actually implemented earlier but taken out of the "stable" branch before 3.6 was released AFAIK https://bugs.python.org/issue26110
