I'm in general agreement with this statement; however, different opinions
exist.  Core types are a big part of the Rebol language for instance.

There are a lot of things that VB gives me that I am unwilling to give up.
So perhaps I should write a sequence type for use in VB?  The problem with
that is that every operation on a VB sequence class would be of the nature...

sequence_class.ADD(sequence_type_var,10)

Instead of the prefered (IMHO) syntax...

sequence_type_var += 10

With respect to adding any type to Euphoria this is among the issues.

It's all tradeoffs, my friends.
