Why in the world couldn't it be? At the most boring level, if there were
some difficulty, one could just project everything into some universal
type, then do case analysis based on what sort of thing you had. (Which is
the nub of Bob Harper's claim that "dynamically typed" languages are just a
special case of statically typed languages, if I understand it.)
