  I don't think this is relevant.  It is not correct to say
"with matches(...) I can check the datatype".  I don't say
it is not correct to use matches() to check the lexical
representation of a value, in order to try to deduce some
information about its type.

  But then you have to be aware you'll not get the type,
you'll get guesses.
