Which is the same sort of rubbish as "all is object."

Clearly it is impossible to have all types referents. I don't mean here
small fundamental types like Boolean etc, but the pointers themselves. To
incorporate then one needs to introduce pointers-to-pointers, then
pointers-to-pointers-to-pointers ad infinitum, which is impossible. The
"concept" leaks.
