gollark: My stuff is mostly designed as "insanely weakly typed with minimal sanity checks", while most of the CC standard libraries/programs go for "have some type checking on function arguments".
gollark: Oh, right. I assumed you meant it would make `type` return that, but I don't think CC has that implemented.
gollark: No, I mean I don't think it does anything.
gollark: Er, metatables having __type.
gollark: I don't think that's supported in CC's Lua implementation, although I may be wrong.
