FInally, I'd like to lit another fire: given that `min()` and `max()` accept an arbitrary amount of arguments, and that the signature that seems to be preferred for the hypothetical clamp at the moment sees `value` as the first positional argument, should the function then accept iterables as values for `minimum` and `maximum`?
Something along the lines of:

clamp(value: Number, minimum: Union[Number, Iterable[Number]], maximum: 
Union[Number, Iterable[Number]])

I think that's overcomplicating it. How often have you actually wanted that feature?

If you want bounds that are iterables, just use min/max on them first.
