So maybe you are focussing at the values layer and I'm focussing and the
language layer. I totally accept that a values layer will be part of any
implementation, I used the something of the approach some time ago
(.../rebkit/tmd* on ios dev), but I don't feel it is enough by itself.
Now where is my discounted cash flow custom type ?! ;^)
