You lack sufficient imagination -- Larry's suggested that Perl6 strings may consist of a list of chunks. I can easily imagine each of those "chunks" being full-fledged STRING* objects.
Did Larry speak of PerlString or STRING?
Larry, bluntly, doesn't care. He wants it to work at the perl level, and whatever magic we need to do to make it work is fine with him. If we have to have two versions of the regex core, one that works on PMCs and one that shortcuts to STRINGs, well, that's our issue not his.
