Not really. I may have vector length manipulation and address formatting though. But vector lengths are not integers (or natural for that matter) and an address is certainly not a string. Perhaps you could use these primitives to represent these things but we should not confuse representation with equality.

If instead of “int age, int size, int color” you have “age_t age, size_t size, color_t color”, and a type system that helps keep these apart, so much confusion can be avoided...
