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.
