 While reading this doc, you'll come across some data types like [Layout][2],
-[Color][4], [Message][3] etc. that says something like "x can be any of the
-following", and then you'll see a list of strings and/or lua tables just below.

-Note the word "finite". Many conventional programming languages have only two
-kinds of data types with finite set of values:
+Notice the word "be". Unlike classes or structs (aka product types), they don't

+set of values.
 
-- `null` - aka "unit type", can be only one thing - i.e. `null`.
-- `bool` - can be one of the two possible values - `true` or `false`.
+Also notice the word "tagged". Unlike the single variant `null`, or the dual
+variant `boolean` types, the variants of sum types are tagged (i.e. named), and
+may further have, or be, value or values of any data type.
 
-Other types like `integer`, `float`, `string` etc. can have infinite number of

 And there you go. This is exactly what sum types are - glorified enums that can
 have nested types in each branch.
