Don't you think the UV people meant that everything in UV is "stored in the
file" ("treated") as strings (characters)? Maybe that confused Joe, not
coming from a pick environment.

Joe this is not true
Did it ever occur to you that maybe you are misinterpreting what they are
saying or perhaps they are not saying it right or perhaps don't know any better?
Everything in UV is NOT treated as a string. UV has several datum types,
you just don't see them on the surface, they are handled underneath. I can
assure you that math functions (provided you don't specifically request
stringmath) are treated as numbers, numeric types, etc. They are absolutely not
treated as strings, except where the programmer makes specific string function
calls using those variables.
