Does anyone know why dictionaries' values in Construct 2 can only be numbers but not any other types of objects

I just wonder why. So, if anyone knows the reason I would be happy to know it too.

Obviously, we could reference any object by storing UIDs or IIDs as values in dictionaries, so it's not a big deal to be able to store only numbers. Maybe this is the reason why.

You can use text values too. Actually numbers and text are the only values you can use in C2 expressions.
