Should this ship in Tcl 9.0, you won't have to learn it. What's neat about the types shown in the diagram is that you could say that Tcl (byte)code already implicitly has them. This comes from the research being done by two members of the Tcl core team, DKF and KBK, in order to make it possible to compile existing Tcl code with LLVM. The idea is that if your compiler can prove certain variables are a certain type narrower than STRING, it can apply optimizations to them for a major performance boost, especially to numerical code (2x-25x).
