'Fraid not, T.E.D. As you (almost) stated yourself, they're both of type
STRING. It's type that counts here, not subtype. Note the component
declarations themselves: they include a type name (STRING), plus a constraint.
They're not anonymous.
(This whole question of "others" in aggregates has always been a tough one
to explain.)
