Sorry if this is a dumb question, but are there actually good reasons to remove "types"? IMHO the types module helps keeping code readable. For example "if type(obj) == FloatType" is just more readable than "if type(obj) == type(1.0)". Luckily Python does not distinguish float and double like other languages - otherwise it wouldn't be clear for the average programmer if 1.0 is a float or a double constant.
