Where the following construction is false or unusable ?
I did not look whether they are false or unusable, but the basic
challenge is how we can make legacy apps that are not aware of polytype
files fit into the system. In you proposal, the default facet of a
.tar.bz2 file would be the actualy untranslated/compressed content of
the file. But what if I want a legacy application to browse the file
like a directory? Or how could even new apps exchange file names without
abiguity?
