Ah, the chainability paradigm. That makes perfect sense. The
language doesn't care if you are referencing an array of differently
typed objects or a specific object, so I guess that strong typing is
ruled out.

That's an architectural quirk of jQuery - it's their whole chainability
paradigm - everything returns a configured instance of jQuery.
It works well in JavaScript, but I can see how it wouldn't work well in
a typed languge. That said, jQuery's chainability paradigm is not my
favorite, even in
