I would say LC is "typeless" as far as it can be. Graphic data is not strictly typeless, data read in as binary is not typeless, etc. In fact, any attempt to reduce *ALL* data to strings would be a horrible mistake. I guess I'm saying that I appreciate not having to worry about typing until it can't be helped.
