I'd suggest the other way around.  What you have lets someone or
some code assign a non-number and get the same slow behavior we
want to avoid.  I'd say (and (natnump ...) (< region-len ...)).

IOW, if it's not a natnump and the size is not smaller than that
number then don't use the region.

The rest sounds good to me.
