You do things like that in type-bondage languages like Java and C++
because you have to. Can you give an example of where you miss it in
Python?
If you want to do something different based on the type of an
argument, it's easy enough to do:
def foo (bar):
if type(bar) == whatever:
do stuff
else:
do other stuff
replace type() with isistance() if you prefer.

Python is not typeless. It's just that the types are bound to the
objects, not to the containers that hold the objects.
