Often, you need to determine the type of an input so that you can work with the type specific properties. I've seen a couple ways to do it and I don't like either.

Trial "more specifics":

These cases can keep nesting on and on.

What if we had a type structure (based on the case structure) that could make it more specific for us?

Maybe we can extend the concept to Objects and variants

Cool! Kudosed. I'd like to point out AristosQueue's comment in there mentioning the other data types (Variants, objects, etc). That's really where I was going with this.
