Depends how broadly you define "numerical". Is a datetime numerical? It's a reasonable thing to clamp, and in a sense, can be thought of as a number (eg Unix time). But it's certainly not part of the numeric tower. I'd say it's best to let clamp work with anything comparable, and let people figure for themselves what makes sense.
