How are you able to evaluate whether the use of a tagged type is a "wise
decision" unless you have been given reasons why the type is tagged?
My judgement about the fact that the type is tagged and nonlimited is that
this is a very *unwise* decision.
There is no reason for the type to be tagged unless you need type extension
or dynamic binding.
There is no reason why the global objects' type should have assignment.
There is no reason why the global objects' type should allow anyone to
create instances anywhere.
