This is not really true. Heterogeneous sequences do add a lot of user value. To give you a quick example from our daily lives: building the content of a mixed element fragment by fragment requires temporary heterogeneous sequences. Such a limitation would make our data model much weaker, without a serious justification. ( I see the reason of inefficiencies in certain implementations, but there is nothing inherently inefficient in the concept.)
